How It Works: Private Medical Evidence Timeline
This timeline explains what to expect from intake through evidence readiness. Timing varies by case complexity, record availability, and provider scheduling.
-
1. Discovery Call and Eligibility Review
We review your objectives, existing ratings, and likely evidence gaps.
-
2. Records Collection and Evidence Mapping
We map required records and define which conditions need DBQ and opinion support.
-
3. Provider Coordination
Coordinate private provider reviews and documentation requests for supported conditions.
-
4. Draft Package QA
Quality-check packet structure, record completeness, and clinical rationale consistency.
-
5. Final Evidence Package Handoff
You receive a submission-ready package and checklist for your chosen filing path.
-
6. Post-Handoff Questions
We clarify package contents and next-step logistics. VA claim decisions and timelines remain VA-controlled.
