A licensed provider reviews your records and, where the evidence supports it, writes a citation-backed independent medical opinion linking hypertension to your service. Remote, HIPAA-secured, flat fee.

The evidence gap

Why Hypertension claims stall in Florida

Hypertension is rarely granted on a direct basis but is frequently granted as secondary to PTSD, obstructive sleep apnea, or diabetes. The medical literature connecting chronic stress response and untreated apnea to sustained blood pressure elevation is substantial and well established.

What the VA requires

  • A current diagnosis with qualifying blood pressure readings
  • A service-connected primary condition or in-service onset
  • A medical opinion establishing causation or aggravation

How we help Florida veterans

  • Secondary opinions citing the PTSD and sleep apnea hypertension literature
  • Aggravation analysis where pre-existing hypertension worsened
  • Review of your reading history against the DC 7101 thresholds

Rated under DC 7101 from 10 to 60 percent based on diastolic and systolic readings, with a minimum rating available where continuous medication is required. Typical turnaround is up to 4 weeks once your complete records arrive.
