So I just checked the DoDMERB page and my status says Remedial Required. :'( What do I need to do now?
Yes, I called on Wednesday and the technician told me it was the form of bronchitis I had two years ago which had me use an inhaler for around two weeks.Do you even know for sure what they are wanting? If not, I'd definitely wait. They'll let you know exactly what they want. Had to do it with my DS.

Do exactly what the remedial asks for. No more....no less.
Since you not tell us the condition more specific advice is difficult. Make sure you know what it takes to be qualified with that condition. See if you can get documentation from your physician that specifically states that.
I had a form of Bronchitis during the summer of 2014 which required me to use an inhaler. Because I had to use an inhaler they required the remedial.Remedial code 240.00
"DOES NOT REQUIRE A PHYSICIAN'S APPOINTMENT: Please provide copies (NOT ORIGINALS) of ALL treatment and/or hospitalization records REGARDING $ $$ , to include ALL applicable in-patient and out-patient records including, but not limited to, VA disability/examination records, DD Form 214, operative reports, anesthesia records, pathology reports, follow-up visits, rehabilitation records, recovery room records, x-ray reports, etc.,"
Do as requested. You send in all the medical records relevant to the condition. So I would check with your physician to make sure you have all relevant documents.

I will use dermatitis as an example since there has been a recent post about it. The standard state "Non-specific Dermatitis. Current or history of recurrent or chronic non-specific dermatitis to include contact... or dyshidrotic dermatitis requiring more than treatment with over the counter medications."
In this case it would be great if you could get documentation from your physician that states. Non-specific dermatitis only requiring treatment with OTC medication.
The did medical standards are here
