I was rated by VA recently. I'm still a reservist. The new PHA system asks for VA rating and reasons. I have 16 years total with active and reserve time. I don't want to be kicked out before 20.
Will this set off alarms at medical to have me referred for discharge?

PHA are just an evaluation to see if you need any references for additional care, and they also collect statistical information to look for correlation and trends across services, MOS's, locations, etc. You can have a disability rating and be a Reservist, it's pretty common. A PHA can't refer you to a med board, only a provider can do that.

So you got a VA rating while in service and they kicked you out with severance or medical discharge? What were you rated when they discharged you? Also did you go through a PDES process to assess fit or unfit status.
