Its sections are: 1. Current Diagnosed Disability 2. In-Service Event, Injury or Illness 3. Medical Link Between Them 4. Continuity of Symptoms 5. Prior Rating History 6. Exposure Evidence 7. Gaps and Missing Records **Causation Analysis.** This report looks at the nexus question. The nexus is the link a doctor draws between the condition and service. Its sections are: 1. The Question Presented 2. Records Reviewed 3. The Mechanism as Described 4. Onset and Temporal Sequence 5. Findings Consistent with the Claimed Mechanism 6. Findings Inconsistent With It, or Pointing Elsewhere 7. What the Records Do Not Say 8. Provider Opinions on Causation The last section gathers what each doctor said about the link. Read it next to the source pages. The report states what the records say. It does not decide service connection, and it gives no rating. ### Other reports on this case type | Report | When it helps | | --- | --- | | Pre-existing Condition Analysis | An aggravation claim, where the condition was there before service | | Deposition Preparation Summary | You need each provider's records and the contradictions between them | | Rebuttal | You want to answer a document from the other side. You upload that document first | | Missing Records & Gap Analysis | You need a list of outstanding records by custodian, with an Excel download | | Case Strengths & Weaknesses | You want to see where the file is strong and where it is exposed | A Damages Summary is not offered for this case type. ### Create a report 1. Press **Report studio** in the side menu. 2. Press **New report** . The case must have finished processing. 3. Pick the **Case** and the **Report type** . 4. Check the **Template** . 5. Read the cost line. Press **Generate** . You can make 1 report at a time per case. See [create a report in Report Studio](https://medrecords.ai/help/tasks/report-studio/). ### What it costs | Action | Credits | | --- | --- | | New report, with 1 verification run | 100 | | Extra verification run | 50 | | Re-run after you add records | 50 | | Rewrite with AI | 10 | | Reading the other side's document for a Rebuttal | 1 per page | | Exports | 0 | ### Check before you send Press **Run Verification and Cross-Examination** . Each claim is marked Supported, Unsupported, Contradicted or Not checked. A second tab lists likely lines of attack. Pay close attention to the nexus section. Click each citation and read the doctor's words on the page. ### Use the same template for every veteran You can copy a built-in template with **Duplicate** , or build 1 from up to 6 of your own past reports. Set it as your default for this report type and case type. The same template then works on every claimant's case. See [set up report templates](https://medrecords.ai/help/tasks/templates/). For more on how firms use these reports, see [VA C-file review](https://medrecords.ai/solutions/va-c-file-review/). Only VA-accredited attorneys, agents and Veterans Service Organizations may help prepare and present VA claims for a fee. Medrecords AI is a records tool for them and their staff. Medrecords AI organizes and cites the records. Its output is not a medical or legal opinion and does not replace your expert. ### Related help - [Review a VA disability claim in Medrecords AI](https://medrecords.ai/help/case-types/va-disability/) - [Track each claimed condition](https://medrecords.ai/help/case-types/va-disability/analysis/) - [Create a report in Report Studio](https://medrecords.ai/help/tasks/report-studio/) - [Set up report templates](https://medrecords.ai/help/tasks/templates/) Facts checked against the Medrecords AI app code on 2026-10-24. ### Try it on a real file Upload a case and see the page count and cost before you confirm.
