Tell me about your case

Honest answers get an honest read. Skip what you don’t know.

Progress

What are you dealing with? e.g., sleep apnea, ringing in my ears, back pain since deployment

Common claim. The tool has data on outcomes for cases like this.

Have you been diagnosed by a doctor?

Yes

Not officially

Not sure

Heads up: a case usually isn’t supportable until a doctor has formally diagnosed it. Your PCP or a VA provider can document it — that’s typically step one.

Has the VA already denied this claim?

No, first time

Yes, denied before

Haven’t filed yet

What did the VA say in the denial? (short paraphrase — optional)

0 / 400

What happened in service? 1–2 sentences. Combat, a job that exposed you to noise/chemicals/falls, an injury, anything.

Anything else I should know? (optional) ↓

We can’t accept cases from your state. Per our state-licensing constraints, Flat Rate Nexus only serves veterans in 48 states (not Oregon or Utah). We’re sorry we can’t help you here. A VA-accredited VSO (VFW, DAV, American Legion) can assist at no cost.

🔒 Your information stays private. We don’t share your data. Free educational screening — not a legal or medical opinion.

I understand this is an educational pre-screen — not a clinical opinion or legal advice. The real review happens when Dr. Ryan reads my records during the $50 records review.

Generation takes 30–60 seconds. Your assessment will be sent to your email when ready.

About the tool & legal fine print

This is an automated pre-screen tool, not a custom medical review. The response is generated based on your inputs against 295,756 public Board of Veterans’ Appeals decisions and the case law that typically applies. Dr. Ryan K. personally reviews your records only if you continue to the $50 records review — that’s where the actual viability call happens.

Educational only. Not a clinical opinion, not legal advice, not VA representation. The atlas reflects what historically won at the BVA — not what will win your case. The 295,756-decision database is FRN’s own analysis of publicly posted BVA decisions; it is NOT data published or endorsed by the VA, the BVA, or any government agency.

Not VA representation. FRN is not VA-accredited. For specific filing questions a free VA-accredited VSO (VFW, DAV, American Legion) is the right path.

48 states only. We don’t accept cases from Oregon or Utah residents. Daily limits: 3 submissions per email, 5 per network.
