<h3>Medical records</h3>
<p>
If you're claiming a burial allowance for a service-connected death, we
recommend submitting the Veteran's medical records. How you submit their
records depends on if you have access to them right now.
</p>
<p>
<strong>Note:</strong> It’s your choice whether you want to submit the
Veteran’s medical records. They'll help us process your claim and
confirm information about the Veteran's medical history at the time of
their death.
</p>
<h4>If you have access</h4>
<p>
If you have access to the Veteran's medical records, you can submit
copies of them with your online application or send them to us by mail.
</p>
<h4>If you don’t have access</h4>
<p>
If you don’t have access to the Veteran’s medical records, you'll need
to authorize the release of their records to us. How you release their
records depends on where the Veteran was receiving care at the time of
their death.
</p>
<p>
Provide details about the records or information you want us to request.
This will help us request this information.
</p>
<p>
<strong>
If the Veteran was receiving care at a VA health facility at the time
of their death,
</strong>{' '}
you can submit a statement in support of your claim (VA Form 21-4138).

<ul>
<li>
<a href="/find-forms/about-form-21-4138/" target="_blank">

</a>{' '}
</li>
</ul>
<p>
<strong>
If the Veteran was receiving care at a non-VA private health facility
at the time of their death,
</strong>{' '}
we’ll try to locate their medical records for you.
</p>
<p>
You can authorize the release of their medical records online after you
submit this application.
</p>
