Cervical Spine DBQ Explained: What REALLY Happens at Your VA C&P Exam (2026)

Описание: Learn what happens during a VA Cervical Spine Compensation & Pension (C&P) exam, including how the Cervical Spine DBQ is used, how range of motion is measured, and how radiculopathy is evaluated. Plus, we break down how the VA actually rates cervical spine conditions.

In this video, you'll learn:

1. How the Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ) structures your exam
2. The key pieces of evidence to submit before your appointment
3. What to expect during the medical history discussion
4. How the VA measures cervical spine range of motion (ROM)
5. How the VA evaluates cervical radiculopathy during the exam
6. The #1 mistake veterans make during the physical exam
7. How to clearly communicate your functional limitations
8. How the VA rates cervical spine conditions based on range of motion
9. What ankylosis means and how it affects your rating
10. How IVDS is rated using the incapacitating episodes formula

Important: This is not a test of toughness. The VA measures functional loss—including movement limited by pain. Stop when pain begins and say it out loud.
