Vandenberg rolls out new annual MHA requirement
A Mental Health Assessment is now a part of every annual Periodic Health Assessment, to help ensure Airmen suffering from undiagnosed mental health issues are referred to the necessary care. In addition to filling out the DD Form 3024 online for their annual PHA, Airmen will speak with a trained healthcare provider or licensed mental health professional to complete the person-to-person component. By implementing yearly screening, more Airmen in the early stages of mental illness will be identified and referred for treatment, helping them heal and improving overall medical readiness.
