I underwent ACL reconstructive surgery on August 16th, and on September 16th, I had my DODMERB medical exam. During the examination, the doctor informed me that I would be disqualified but assured me that they would initiate the waiver process on my behalf. Recently, I received an email notifying me of my disqualification, but it also mentioned that I had been automatically considered for a medical waiver. However, this morning, I received another email stating that my medical disclaimer had been denied. Unfortunately, the email did not guide me in submitting my medical records.
My surgeon said I am recovering very well and am 6 to 8 weeks ahead of the typical recovery schedule for ACL patients. In response to the denial, I submitted an appeal online this morning. However, I'm uncertain about which documents to send with the request, as the online portal did not specify any requirements. Instead, it only provided an email address for submitting information. Does anyone have information on the documents that must be included with my appeal?
Thanks in advance for all of your help!
