How AI Finds Claimable Conditions You Might Not Know You Had

Updated: Aug 7

If you’ve ever looked through your own medical records and thought, “This looks important… but I have no idea what it means,” you’re not alone.

Most veterans never realize how many potentially claimable conditions are hiding in plain sight — buried in years of service treatment records, private medical notes, and scattered VA files.

That’s where AI is so powerful.

Whether you're just leaving the military or already rated by the VA, here's how modern tools — like the ones we use — help find conditions you might’ve never known to claim.


1. It Reads Every Page, Not Just the Obvious Ones

Most veterans’ medical files are hundreds, even thousands of pages long. Inside those pages are:

  • Notes from sick call and deployment clinics

  • Mentions of symptoms you forgot about

  • Diagnoses you were never told about

  • Incomplete evaluations or missed follow-ups

While a human reviewer might skim or miss details, AI can: Analyze all of it. Recognize recurring symptom patterns. Highlight important diagnoses — even those not labeled clearly

Here's An Example: A back pain note in 2012, paired with a physical therapy report in 2015, could indicate a chronic lumbar condition — a claimable issue you never filed for.

2. It Connects the Dots Across Time and Files

AI doesn’t just read. It remembers. It looks across years of fragmented notes to find links you’d never see on your own.

For example:

  • That note from Afghanistan where you reported sleep problems?

  • And your current civilian doctor's diagnosis of sleep apnea?

  • AI recognizes those as connected, potentially qualifying you for a secondary service connection.

This is how we help veterans find claimable secondary or tertiary conditions that were never submitted.

3. It Understands VA Language and Criteria

Let’s be honest — the VA rating system isn’t exactly user-friendly - in fact, its closed off for a reason.

AI tools trained on VA rating criteria (like ours) can:

  • Match medical conditions to VA diagnostic codes

  • Estimate possible disability ratings based on symptoms

  • Identify where documentation is strong… or missing

Here's an Example: You might have multiple reports of joint pain, but never claimed arthritis. AI picks up the pattern and terminology that aligns with VA code 5002 — and flags it as a claimable condition.

4. It Spots What You Didn’t Know Was a Condition

Many veterans only file for what they were told was a diagnosis. But you don’t need a diagnosis to start a claim — just evidence of symptoms linked to service. This could actually end up saving your life.

AI helps identify:

  • Chronic symptoms without a label (e.g., fatigue, tinnitus, insomnia)

  • Repeat mentions of the same complaint

  • Potential undiagnosed Gulf War-related conditions

Bottom line: You don’t need to know what to look for. AI finds the patterns for you.

  1. It Flags Gaps and Suggests What’s Missing

AI doesn’t just say “You can file for this.” It often says:

“You could file for this — but you’re missing a key piece of evidence.”

Maybe it’s a:

  • Nexus letter

  • Diagnosis from a provider

  • C&P exam follow-up

  • Prior rating you never appealed

This helps veterans avoid wasted claims and build stronger ones faster.


What Happens After AI Finds Claimable Conditions?

Once the AI identifies opportunities, we organize them into a custom report that includes:

  • A list of all conditions you may be eligible to claim

  • Evidence summaries pulled directly from your files

  • VA rating estimates based on your documented symptoms

  • Missing evidence recommendations

  • Suggested next steps (new claim, supplemental claim, appeal, etc.)


The Truth Is Most Veterans Have More to Claim Than They Realize And The System Hates That

You served. You’ve got the paperwork. But if no one’s looked at the whole story — across your military records, civilian care, and VA decisions — there’s a good chance the VA missed something. Let AI dig in for you.
