The AMC Screening has been replaced by the Periodic Health Assessment effective 14 January, 2008 - see below:

10–27. Physical inspections prior to annual training

a. Unit commanders are responsible for individual inspection of all personnel under their command immediately prior to departure for AT (normally within 72 hours).
b. As a minimum, this screening will consist of— (1) Confirmation that a current PHA is on hand for each Soldier scheduled to attend AT.
(2) Physical observation for any outward signs of existing injury or disease, including bandages, splints, casts, use of crutches, braces, or other orthopedic devices.
(a) Any Soldier that has not previously been evaluated or exhibits signs of an obvious physical, psychiatric, or dental condition that is likely to interfere with or be aggravated by AT will be required to be evaluated by a military medical officer, including the completion of a new PHA before being allowed to depart for AT.
(b) If this evaluation results in a determination of a significant category change, the Soldier may not attend AT until cleared.
c. The commander will certify in the remarks section of unit DA Form 1379 (U.S. Army Reserve Components Unit Record of Reserve Training) that the screening in b above took place before unit annual training, and will ensure that this certification includes his or her name, unit, and date. This statement will read: “ I, the (Commander) of (Unit) performed a physical inspection of each Soldier present and attending annual training on (Date), prior to departing for unit annual training.”

AMC Verbal Briefing

Fellow Soldiers,

Department of the Army, through the National Guard Bureau, has mandated annual medical screenings for all soldiers.

This screening is a review of any and all medical conditions encountered since the last physical exam. It must be done at least 90 days before Annual Training to determine fitness for active duty.

Failure to provide the requested information will result in medical disqualification for retention in the Army National Guard.
Please fill out page one of the Annual Medical Certificate.

Your medical history will be held in confidence. Myself, or other trained medical personnel will review with each of you your medical record and this certificate.

Are there any questions?

Thank you for your cooperation.
