JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-FORT SAM HOUSTON, Texas - Brig. Gen. Katherine Simonson, deputy commanding general medical, U.S. Army Recruiting Command (USAREC) and task force commander for the MPAT said, “With the deployment of MHS Genesis, an applicant’s entire medical history became available to the medical review process. This availability of medical information has added time and workload when prescreening applicants, gathering documents, and completing consults to support waivers to clear medical disqualifying conditions. Although MHS Genesis has increased the medical timeline for accessions into the Army for those with possible disqualifications, the percentage of disqualified candidates did not increase significantly for 2022 to 2023.”
