What is a Nexus Letter?

A Nexus Letter is an evidence-based document prepared by a competent and credible medical professional that helps to establish a “connection” between the veteran’s current disability and their active duty military service

The 5 Statements of Likelihood for a VA Nexus Letter

Nexus Statement #1 “Is due to” (100% sure)

The nexus opinion “is due to” means the doctor is 100% certain that a veteran’s condition was caused or made worse by active duty service or by another service-connected disability for secondary service connection.
This statement is highly unlikely because a doctor will rarely, if ever, be 100% certain.

VA Nexus Statement #2 “More likely than not” (greater than 50%)

The nexus opinion “more likely than not” means the doctor believes there is a greater than 50% chance that a veteran’s condition was caused or made worse by active duty service or by another service-connected disability for secondary service connection.

Nexus Statement #3 “At least as likely as not” (equal to 50%)

The nexus opinion “at least as likely as not” means the doctor thinks there is an approximate even balance of medical evidence for and against, and thus, there is a 50/50 chance that a veteran’s condition was caused or made worse by active duty service or by another service-connected disability for secondary service connection.
This is the minimum nexus statement that will help a veteran prove service connection, because the benefit of the doubt always goes to the veteran according to VA law.
When all things are equal, the tie goes to the veteran. 

Nexus #4 “Not likely due to” (less than 50%)

The nexus opinion “not likely due to” means the doctor thinks there is a less than 50% chance that a veteran’s condition was caused or made worse by active duty service or by another service-connected disability for secondary service connection.
This statement will likely cause the VA Rater to deny service connection, unless one or more other medical opinions carry more weight or contain different medical opinions.

VA Nexus #5 “Is not due to” (0% chance)

The nexus opinion “is not due to” means the doctor thinks there is a 0% chance that a veteran’s condition was caused or made worse by active duty service or by another service-connected disability for secondary service connection.
This statement will cause the VA Rating Official to deny service connection.
