Commanders
Can I send my Soldier to see you? Where are you located?
- We have staff attached to each Readiness Divisions; they are accessible via email or phone.
Why do I have to send Soldiers to a Military Treatment Facility for Command Directed Behavioral Health Evaluations (CDBHE)?
- CDBHE are for a variety of concerns including fitness for duty, occupational requirements, safety issues, significant changes in performance, or behavior changes that may be attributable to possible mental status changes. Military treatment facility providers have in-depth knowledge of service requirements and understand the process to complete these specific evaluations.
Soldiers
Why did I get a profile after my PHA, PDHA, PDHRA?
- LHI reviews all answers that you provide, based on the combined responses LHI may initiate or recommend a profile. A provider will first review the documentation to determine that a profile is warranted.
- Soldiers may not immediately be contacted that a profile was initiated but can always check their medical readiness.
How can I get rid of a profile?
- You must provide appropriate medical documentation to AR-MMC that supports the removal of the profile.
Will this program affect my profile or be on my record?
- No to both, calls and emails are confidential.
Will civilian employers know about it?
- The military does not provide information to your civilian employers.
Will the Army pay for my treatment?
- YES…If you have an approved line of duty for the specific reason you are seeking treatment.
- YES…If you are on specific orders that entitle you to care at a military treatment facility.
- MAYBE…If the injury occurred or was aggravated while in military status as long as there is no other reason for the cause of injury i.e. alcohol or drug related.
- NO…If the injury occurred not on military status.
What if I cannot afford insurance or treatment?
PHP will assist soldiers and families to find resources that are inexpensive or possibly free.
Will a Behavior Health Profile or getting treatment affect my security clearance?
VERY UNLIKELY....professional behavioral health counseling is not a threat to an individual's security clearance; rather it can be a positive factor in the security clearance process. CCF's adjudicative history indicates that 99.98% of cases with psychological concerns obtain/retain their security clearance eligibility.
