LIGHT DUTY • Light duty is a period when the member is excused from

LIGHT DUTY • Light duty is a period when the member is excused from performing specified duties. A provider authorizes light duty in 30 day increments. Light duty will not exceed 90 consecutive days. At the end of the light duty period, the member will either be immediately returned to duty or referred to a Limited Duty or Physical Evaluation Board.

 • • Limited Duty A period when a member is restricted from performing

• • Limited Duty A period when a member is restricted from performing certain aspects of his military duties, usually in 6 months increments. Two periods of limited duty may be locally approved. Third periods of limited duty must be approved by Service Headquarters. Return to unrestricted duty is anticipated.

Temporary Limited Duty (TLD) • Documented period of medically restricted duty, in consideration of

Temporary Limited Duty (TLD) • Documented period of medically restricted duty, in consideration of a patient’s illness, injury, or disease process. • Most appropriate only for Sailors whom a return to medically unrestricted duty status is anticipated. • The Convening Authority of a Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) has the authority to authorize up to twelve months of TLD for enlisted Sailors. Any additional TLD MUST be submitted for approval to Navy Personnel Command (PERS-454) • All requests for TLD involving Officers MUST be submitted to Navy Personnel Command (PERS-454). A member whose case has been referred to the Physical Evaluation Board (PEB) for disability adjudication will be concurrently placed on TLD pending the PEB outcome.

Permanent Limited Duty (PLD) • PLD is defined as a need for a service

Permanent Limited Duty (PLD) • PLD is defined as a need for a service member’s skill or experience that justifies the continuance of that service member on active duty in a limited assignment; the service member may be retained on active duty or in active status for a specified period of time. Each case is individually considered, and the member’s length of service is not controlling in PLD decisions. • PERS-82 may, upon a member's request, particularly from a member with over 18 years but less than 20 years of active service, retain unfit to continue naval service members in a PLD status when such retention is in the best interests of the service and consistent with the guidance in paragraph 6003 of SECNAVINST 1850. 4 E. • Permanent Limited Duty (PLD) will not be approved when retention in a PLD status would jeopardize the member’s health or safety, or that of others

The following criteria must be met for consideration: • • 1. Member must be

The following criteria must be met for consideration: • • 1. Member must be found “UNFIT” by the Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES)/Physical Evaluation Board (PEB). 2. Unfit member must be able to maintain his or herself in a normal military environment, without adversely affecting his or health or the health of other members. The IDES/PEB will determine if member is a risk. 3. Unfit member may be retained to complete service obligations for Navy funded education or training (i. e. , initial and advanced skill training schools). Unfit member may be retained to meet shortages against authorized strength in an enlisted skill, competitive category, designator or specialty, or a military occupational field or specialty, provided they can perform required duties in an authorized billet for that skill. 4. Unfit member may be retained to complete a current tour of duty or to provide continuity in key billets pending relief. 5. Unfit members may be retained for a specified period of time, at the request of a commanding officer of a medical treatment facility, to meet the need for that specific type of condition in a graduate medical education program at a specific MTF that cannot be met at that MTF by other authorized means and is essential to maintaining program accreditation. 6. Unfit member may be retained to reach fleet reserve eligibility if member has over 18 years of active service per U. S. Title 10, Chapter 61. 7. Member must not be a risk per the IDES/PEB.

PHYSICAL EVALUATION BOARD (PEB) • Inherent in a PEB is the provider’s opinion that the member’s condition is of such severity as to interfere with the ability to adequately perform his or her duties.

FIT TO CONTINUE SERVICE: • Fit: Member can reasonably perform duties of their office,

FIT TO CONTINUE SERVICE: • Fit: Member can reasonably perform duties of their office, grade, rank or rating. Fit does not mean “fit for full duty” or “suitable. ” • Suitable: Member meets all requirements for an overseas, remote or operational assignment. • Although the PEB determines that a member is FIT, he/she may not be able to: - Pass PFA/PFT - Deploy - Serve in Special Duty assignments (flight, submarine, etc. )

Profiling 101 Physical Profiling Basics – MRDP Concept • • The Medical Retention Determination

Profiling 101 Physical Profiling Basics – MRDP Concept • • The Medical Retention Determination Point (MRDP) is agreed to occur when a Soldier’s progress appears to have stabilized, the course of further recovery is relatively predictable, and where it can be reasonably determined that further treatment will not cause the Soldier to meet retention standards or render them capable of performing the duties required by their office, grade, rank or rating. MRDP will be made within one year of being diagnosed with a medical condition that does not appear to meet retention standards, and may be made earlier if the examiner determines that the member will not be capable of returning to duty within one year. The one-year time starts when the injury occurred, or in the case of illnesses, when the diagnosis was first thought to have manifest itself A Soldier that has met MRDP for at least one (1) condition must be sent to the MEB. Other conditions that have not caused the Soldier to meet his or her MRDP on their own will be addressed only to the extent necessary to allow the MEB to decide if the condition/s meet or fail retention standards.

Select SLIDE MASTER to Insert Briefing Title Here PERIODIC & DEPLOYMENT HEALTH ASSESSMENTS The periodic (PHA) and deployment health assessments (DHA) should be coded with the alphanumeric ICD-9 V code in AHLTA (first diagnosis), not a numeric ICD-9 diagnosis code. PHAs are an ANNUAL requirement (with 3 months leeway until 15 months before the SM goes 'red'). DHAs are associated with deployments and their primary purpose is screening (NOT diagnosis) and identification of conditions for referral and further evaluation (where any 'new' diagnoses may or may not be considered). In the future, as the AMEDD implements improved electronic tracking of referrals from the DHAs and PHA diagnostic codes entered by MEDCOM, FORSCOM, and other healthcare providers become critical for tracking compliance reporting to unit leadership. a.
