AI Summary

  • Requires military service branches to establish uniform medical accession standards that apply consistently to all commissioned officers and to all enlisted members within each occupational specialty

  • Prohibits disqualification from military service based solely on a past medical diagnosis if: the diagnosis occurred before age 13, no treatment was required in the past 5 years, a licensed medical professional confirms current fitness for service, and the Secretary determines the condition is unlikely to impact readiness

  • Mandates each service branch establish a formal review process for medical disqualifications and allows Secretaries to waive disqualifying diagnoses when accession is determined to be in the interests of national security

  • Requires medical accession standards and waiver processes to be made readily available and understandable to potential military recruits

  • Directs the Secretary of Defense to submit annual reports to Congress on the number of medical disqualifications, waivers granted, and any updates to standards or review processes
