Good evening, Despite my PEBLO officer convinced I would undergo full MEB, AFPC decided I will return to duty. My injuries have direct tie to combat engagement, and I’m surprised that the board decided to non-concur the disposition recommendation for MEB by my treatment team and CC...

I’m sorry to hear of your RTD decision, despite the SME and CC statements. Have you looked at the MSD to see if there may have been any factors for the RTD decision (i.e MH treatment < 12 mos, etc.)? I myself am awaiting AFPC’s decision regarding PTSD from combat engagement a few years back...

Was this recent? I’m shocked that AFPC would RTD despite NARSUM and CIS favoring “do not retain” status. Was your NARSUM written by a Psychiatrist?

Did you CIS reflect a do not retain rec? So it sounds like AFPC RTD’d you given the ALC C3 code. By chance, did your PEBLO give you any explanation as to why?

I wasn’t aware of the donations. Is this through the upgrade selection? Btw, you guys provide great feedback and shared experiences. As a 25+ AD member awaiting my MEB results, I want to say “thank you”.

Thanks Ron. I’m just a little confused on the whole thing. If the 199 does reflect that the “unfit” disability/disabilities are combat related (I am coded by my service as a Combat injured wounded warrior), does CRSC need to be filed? I’ve seen posts where others mention the DoD rating % would...

@kappy, What did you end up getting DoD % after contesting, if you don’t mind me asking. I’m being MEB’d for combat related PTSD, but also have separate physical conditions that are not fitting for retention and well documented (such as TBI with residual calcifications on imaging of traumatic...

@RonG, would it be advantageous to apply for CRSC for those over 20+ years with combat related injuries and DoD rated 100%? I ask as my retired pay exceeds VA @ 100%. I assume this would be the route to go as I would be able to waive $4100+ for non-taxable income, leaving roughly $2k to be taxed...

Living allowance is BAH of single E-5 at area of attendance (or residence if online) if I’m not mistaken.

Actually, they do have a timer. Unfortunately, that isn’t codified in DAFMAN 48-108. Go talk to the patient advocate at the MTF and if needed, get your 1st Sgt involved. Per the aforementioned publication, you “should” be assigned Code 37 as soon as AMRO deemed that you do not meet retention...

Would you classify Nurses, Lab Officers, Audiologists, PAs, etc. as medical officers? Yes they work in medicine, but there’s no DoD terminology to define medical officer (yet the language is geared towards MDs/DOs). Title 37 part 335 defines healthcare professional for physicians as medical...

Not sure what regulations you’re referring to. Medical standards apply to everyone in uniform. If there’s a regulation different for licensed healthcare professions, please share. Thanks!

Seeing a few posts on this. What’s the skinny? Why are providers being found FFD when non-medical personnel with similar scenarios are full steam MEB’d?
