There are 3 below options, below options I copied form my the original request.Just to temper expectation. DODMERB states that they will not reimburse candidates for medical expenses incurred. That is why they prefer you to go through DODMETS to do all testing. Doing on your own is always an option, but one you pay for.
- The first option, the preferred option, is to use our contractor, CIV Team. CIV Team is already aware of your Medical AMI requirements and will assist you with locating the nearest subcontracted physician or test facility in your area. If need be, CIV Team has 30-days to find a provider. Log onto their website: https://www.dodmets.com to see the physician assigned to complete your AMI. You can also call CIV Team, at 215-587-9600. We will not reimburse you for any transportation or lodging costs you may incur. The subcontractor will send the results of your medical AMI directly to DoDMERB at no expense to you.
- The second option is to complete the AMI at a Military Treatment Facility (MTF). This option is also at no cost to you, but access to the MTF may be an inhibiting factor. Also, not every MTF will be capable of completing every possible medical AMI. We are not responsible for delays in obtaining appointments or appointments canceled by the MTF. This letter will be your authorization to obtain the AMI and must be brought with you to the military installation for base/post access. You can find military facilities at: http://www.tricare.mil/mtf/
- A third option, unless otherwise directed in this letter, is to have the AMI completed by a private physician or test facility of your choice, at your own expense. The government WILL NOT pay for, nor reimburse you for, this option! If you choose this option you will need to make the appointment yourself, and you will need to email the results dha.ncr.dod-merb.mbx.helpdesk@health.mil. To repeat, the Government WILL NOT, under any circumstances, pay, or reimburse you for this option.
We are going to use the first option, nothing has not been updated on DodMet site yet, we called them, and they said it takes few days for it to get updated on their site. So I am going to call them again in couple of days.
Will post the progress here, as we move along.
