| .1 Explain the purposes of Medical Examinations. (Ref. a, Ch-15) | To obtain medical data for determination of medical fitness for enlistment, induction, appointment and retention for applicants and members of the Armed Forces. The information will also be used for medical boards and separation of Service members from the Armed Forces. |
| .2 Explain the difference between the three types of medical health records and when each type would be used. (Ref. a) | Health Records: A medical file of continuous care given to an active duty (AD) member. Outpatient Records: A medical file of continuous care which documents ambulatory treatment received by a person other than an active duty member. Inpatient Records: A medical file which documents care provided to a patient (inpatient) assigned to a designated inpatient bed in an MTF or ship. |
| .3 What is a PHA? (Ref. c) | Preventive Health Assessment. The medical officer reviews all areas of the PHA. |
| .4 Discuss the purpose of a Non-Medical Assessment (NMA) and its two sections. (Ref. f) | The Purpose of the NMA is to provide a snap-shot of the subject member’s performance, abilities and potential contribution via the Chain Of Command’s view. The member’s COC completes the NMA within 30 days of notification from the NOSC Medical Department. NOSC Medical personnel forward the command generated NMA to BUMED for inclusion to the member’s fit-for-duty package. |
| .5 Discuss the procedures for transferring Service Treatment Records (STR) of transitioning service members. (Ref. e) | Service Treatment Records need to be sent to the repository in St. Louis within five days of the NOSC notification. The respository needs to receive it within 45 days of the member’s loss date. |
| .6 Explain Physical Risk Classifications for Inactive Duty Personnel (Ref. d) | Physical risk classifications are determined when a member is under the medical readiness review process and their case has been adjudicated. PRC A. Assigned to a member who is generally considered physically qualified for assignment to all duties consistent with grade, designator, and rating; and for retention in the Navy Reserve. PRC B. Assigned to a member who is generally considered physically qualified for assignment to all duties consistent with grade, designator, and rating; and for retention in the Navy Reserve; however, the member has a physical defect or condition that could restrict the member’s active duty assignment. Personnel with this classification require an annual medical retention review (MRR) submission. A waiver is required for any active duty period greater than 30 days or duty outside the continental United States (OCONUS). PRC C. Assigned to an Individual Ready Reserve member who has reported a physical defect or condition during annual screenings. This classification serves as an indicator for conditions that require further evaluation if active duty is considered. A waiver is required for any active duty period greater than 30 days or duty OCONUS. PRC 4. Assigned to a member who is not physically qualified at the current time for active duty or retention in the Ready Reserve. Members assigned a PRC 4 have evidence of physical defects or conditions which may or may not be physically disqualifying. NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) will withhold its final determination of the physical qualification for a maximum period of 1 year pending submission of additional medical information required by BUMED. PRC 5. Assigned to a member who is not physically qualified for retention in the Navy Reserve and not considered physically fit for active duty. NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) will direct involuntary discharge or retirement for eligible members who fail to elect one of the options contained within the physical disqualification notification letter. |
| .7 Discuss individual responsibilities associated with complete disclosure and medical readiness. (Ref. a) | Every reservist is responsible for notifying his or her CO immediately of any physical problem that may delay or preclude his or her mobilization. |
| .8 Discuss annual SELRES dental screening requirements. (Ref. g) | Every reservist is responsible for their own dental care. Dental exams must be conducted annually and can be done by a civilian dentist, with the requirement that a military dental exam is done once every three years. If a member needs dental work, it will not be paid for by the Navy. |
| .9 Discuss Temporarily Not Dentally Qualified (TNDQ). (Ref. g) | Class 3: Patients require urgent or emergent dental treatment. Patients are normally not considered to be worldwide deployable. They are tracked in MRRS for 6 months, and given the MAS code MDT until their dental treatment is complete. |
| .10 Discuss the requirements and limitations with the following MAS codes: (Ref. f) a. MS1 b. MPQ c. MNN d. MDT e. MDF | a. Denotes that the member is under a Medical Readiness Review and the package has been submitted to BUMED. Member cannot go on orders unless a waiver has been submitted for those annual submissions. b. Member is in an injury status and cannot go on orders. c. Member is PRC B and requires an annual submission, needs waiver for orders over 29 days or overseas. d. Dental Class 3, TNDQ, member needs dental work completed within 6 months, not world wide assignable. e. Dental Class 4, member has an expired dental exam, cannot perform orders until completed. |
| .11 Deployment health assessments augment the periodic health assessment. What are the three components of a deployment health assessment? (Ref b) | DD 2795 (Pre-deployment) DD 2796 (Post Deployment) DD 2900 (Post Deployment Reassessment) |
| .12 Discuss the time frames in which the three components of a deployment health assessment are due. (Ref b) | DD 2795 (Pre-deployment) completedno earlier than 60 days prior to mobilization. DD 2796 (Post Deployment) completed at NMPS, but within 30 days of leaving theater. DD 2900 (Post Deployment Reassessment) completed within 90-180 days after leaving theater. |
