Anyone know if HRC keeps a list of EFMP locations that have been denied?

Currently been denied many locations due to EFMP. Trying to see if branch keeps track of these locations or do they just resubmit later in when pcsing?

EFMP approval/denial is done at an individual level between the installation and the individual.

It all depends on the installation and the EFMP. Not all EFMPs are the same - so say your EFMP is denied for certain installations doesn't mean someone else's EFMP would get denied at the same ones.

My daughter is in EFMP. When I was trying to figure out where to PCS next last time I did, Ft Hood came up. Her EFMP got denied and all I was told by branch is she was told "cannot provides the services needed." Well this was after her transplant and I hadn't updated her EFMP so I got it updated. Yet again denied EFMP. I called the EFMP coordinator at Hood and asked why. She said all she could tell me is the hospital said they could not provide the services she needed. That she couldn't tell me specifically what they couldn't provide.

But someone else with a dependent in EFMP could get approved at Hood depending on why they're in EFMP.

I don't think they keep a list of installations that EFMP denies because EFMP denies on a case by case basis.

No, posts are not forever denied based on EFMP and often times installations look to bring services to their post. The increased use of Virtual Health/Telehealth is becoming a game changer in this arena.

There's a record but that's irrelevant. Each time you PCS your EFMP is evaluated to determine if it can be supported at that location for the expected duration of your stay
