More Book Details

Description of the Book:

AMSARA has provided the Department of Defense with evidence-based evaluations of accession medical standards since 1996. As part of this ongoing research activity, data are collected from each service’s Disability Evaluation System (DES). AMSARA’s mission was expanded in fiscal year (FY) 2009 to include audits and studies of existing DES by the request of the Office of Assistant Secretary of Defense, Health Affairs. The Disability Evaluation System Analysis and Research Annual Report includes descriptive statistics on the population presenting for disability evaluation by service and describes pre-accession morbidity in this population. Brief descriptions of ongoing special studies and publications, as well as recommendations for disability evaluation and database management, are also given. This report describes analyses conducted in fiscal year 2014 of existing DES data collected for accessions and disability research through the end of FY 2013
