Your primary care doctor recommends a Medical Evaluation Board (MEB). Your case is referred to and evaluated by a Medical Board Physician who initiates a permanent profile if warranted. If a permanent 3 or 4 level profile is issued the Soldier will be contacted by a Physical Evaluation Board Liaison Officer (PEBLO).

After the informal PEB you will be asked to sign and Air Force Form 1180 to tell the PEB if you agree with the findings or not. If you disagree with a finding of fit, you will need to write a justification for why you would like a formal PEB and submit that justification with the Air Force Form-1180.

The MEB Process usually lasts about 65 days, but this is not set in stone. If the case is more difficult, the necessary evidence is not entirely submitted at the start of the MEB Process, or the PEB sends the case back, the MEB Process could take longer.

What is the MEB Process? The MEB Process is the first step of the medical discharge process. A service member with a medical condition that may make them unfit for duty is referred to the Medical Evaluation Board. The Board reviews their conditions and determines which conditions are medically unacceptable.
