A Disability Benefits Questionnaire (DBQ) is the VA's own standardized form for documenting a medical condition — the same kind of form VA examiners complete at a C&P exam.
Many claims stall because a condition was never properly diagnosed. A DBQ documents a current diagnosis and the findings that support it.
Outside a VA exam, range of motion is rarely measured with a goniometer. We take the time to measure it. VA rules require joint exams to test active and passive motion, weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing (38 CFR § 4.59; Correia v. McDonald, 2016).
A fully completed VA DBQ puts your medical evidence in the exact format the rater works from — and gives the examiner at any future C&P exam a properly completed template to go off of.
When VA receives completed DBQs with a Nexus Letter, it often decides the claim without scheduling another exam. VA may accept a private physician's report for rating without further examination when it is adequate (38 CFR § 3.326(c)).
Request a call from Dr. Clinton to find out if a DBQ is right for your claim. Learn more about DBQs · See also: secondary & associated conditions.

A DBQ is the VA's standardized form for documenting a condition, and it is what VA raters use to rate your claim. A properly completed DBQ documents your diagnosis and range of motion, gives you a baseline to go from, and can often save you another C&P exam. Learn more about DBQs.
DBQ evaluations are available now for veterans in North Carolina, and we're building a nationwide provider network. Wherever you are, contact us and we'll help you with the right next step: info@nexusready.net.
Yes. Your records are handled under HIPAA privacy and security standards. We never send your records to anyone until you sign a release authorizing it, and sharing links are private and expire automatically. We keep your records for a limited time — typically a few months — while we help you get organized, and then ask whether you'd like us to keep them longer.
That's exactly what the free readiness check is for — it will tell you honestly, including if the answer is that you're already in good shape without one. You can also request a free call with Dr. Clinton anytime.
