AFPC Focuses on Records Accountability

Week of November 10, 2008

The Force Personnel Center (AFPC) at Randolph AFB, Texas is trying to improve the accountability of medical records and aid in the timely processing of veterans' disability claims. AFPC will collect and then transfer Health Treatment Records (medical and dental records forwarded together) to the servicing Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) location of retired and separated Airmen who left the Air Force after Sept. 1, 2008. Airmen can file a disability claim with the DVA up to six months in advance of separation or retirement providing they can be available for DVA medical appointments. In these cases, Airmen can request a copy of their records to provide to the DVA.
