I cannot for the life of me find any guidance on the med waiver process online. I need to submit a waiver for kidney disease ( a long shot I know), and I am active duty, so I do not have a recruiter to walk me through this. When I went to my PCM for guidance, she had never done a waiver for ocs before, and asked me to get more information. She is also trying to find more out but she wanted me to take point. My questions:
Can I start a med waiver before applying? or do I have to be pro-rec first?
Is there an official format?
Who do I send it too? BUMED?
What all is included? Labs/letters/etc
How long is traditional to wait for a response?
I have applied once before to OCS and was a non-select, I know whats you are selected you have a small time frame to get medical cleared, and this is why I want to do my waiver now, also, I may not be physically qualified to commission.
My kidney condition DOES NOT affect my enlistment. I am asymptomatic, have completed a re-enlistment physical, and for the most part fully deployable.
