star this property answer text <p>With the introduction of the Defence Medical Information Capability Programme (DMICP), the electronic patient record system for the Armed Forces, the vast majority of personnel who have left service since 2010 will have had a Ministry of Defence (MOD) digital primary healthcare record. Conversely, those who left the Armed Forces prior to the introduction of DMICP are likely to have a paper, rather than digital, record.</p><p>When personnel leave the Armed Forces, their healthcare becomes the responsibility of the NHS in the majority of cases. One to three months before discharge, Service personnel are required to register with an NHS GP. The GP then requests the individual's service medical records from the MOD. After the records are received, how they are held is the responsibility of the NHS.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>Phase one of the Veterans' Recognition Scheme is complete, with Service leavers receiving a HM Armed Forces Veterans' Recognition Card as part of the discharge process; since December 2018, over 56,000 such Cards have been issued to Service leavers. Phase two will extend the scheme to existing veterans so they can more quickly, easily, and securely prove they served in the UK Armed Forces.</p><p>As announced during Armed Forces week, more than £1 million in new money is being invested into a new digital service for veterans. This will make it easier and quicker to demonstrate military service in order to access a range of Government and charity services and will in turn help ensure that Recognition Cards are given only to those with verified service. The Government remains committed to delivering Veterans' Recognition Cards and will advise of a timescale for final delivery when this work is complete.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>It is mandatory for all Armed Forces personnel to have a Structured Mental Health Assessment at their discharge medical examination. This will highlight any unknown mental health needs and enable signposting and referral where necessary. This may be to NHS services such as OP COURAGE which provides a complete mental healthcare pathway for service leavers in England with similar services in other parts of the UK or to a MOD Department of Community Mental Health, where an individual can access mental healthcare for six months following their discharge.</p><p>More broadly, all Armed Forces personnel who are unable to undertake normal duties, (including those wounded, injured or sick) will enter the Defence Recovery Capability. Each of the Armed Forces has a Recovery Pathway that optimises an individual's recovery or transition to civilian life. This is underpinned by an Individual Recovery Plan. Factors within the Plan are assessed using the HARDFACTS criteria: Health, Accommodation, Relocation, Drugs/Alcohol/Stress, Finance, Attitude, Children and Family, Training, Resettlement, Employment and Support Agencies. Consequently, any Service person in a Recovery Pathway will receive an ongoing holistic assessment by their Personal Recovery Officer, regardless of whether the individual is medically discharged or leaves Service by another mechanism.</p><p>The Veterans Welfare Service and Defence Transition Service are both components of Veterans UK. These services deliver additional support to Service leavers with enduring welfare needs and those vulnerable personnel on a casework model following discharge.</p>

star this property answer text <p>The genetics of Huntington's disease are complex and the likelihood of an Armed Forces candidate developing the disease and the likely age of presentation are dependent on the number of gene repeats. In some cases it is possible to predict these with a high level of certainty, based either on genetic testing of immediate relatives or of the candidate themselves.</p><p>Candidates known to be carriers of the gene associated with Huntington's disease are normally graded medically unfit for service. Candidates with a proven, immediate family history of this condition are also normally graded medically unfit unless known not to carry the gene.</p><p>If there is clear evidence that a candidate is unlikely to develop Huntington's disease during a Service career then they may, on a case by case basis, be considered medical fit for service. It is for the candidate to provide this evidence, which must be supported by an appropriately qualified and experienced specialist.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) takes problem-gambling seriously. We provide financial awareness training for our people so that they are enabled to make informed financial decisions. Defence also offers welfare support to those who are adversely affected by problem-gambling, which can include signposting to specialist support organisations such as the NHS Problem Gambling Clinic. Defence has also established a team to consider appropriate responses to addictions, including problem-gambling, under the remit of the Health and Wellbeing Strategy, which was published in June 2022. This team is commissioning a new gambling awareness and harm reduction service, due to start in April 2023, further developing our understanding of problem-gambling in the Armed Forces by supporting high quality academic research, engaging across government with policy experts from the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities, and developing additional appropriate clinical treatment pathways that will be delivered by Defence Primary Healthcare teams. Defence also blocks gambling websites on its networks in order to reduce their accessibility.</p>
