DoD outlined new and clearer guidance for the Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES).
This includes several major changes to streamline the process for wounded warriors.
DoD uses IDES to determine a service member’s fitness for duty. If the service member
is found medically unfit for duty by DoD, then they are informed of the proposed VA
disability rating before they leave the service so the member will know the approximate
amount of compensation and benefits they will receive from the VA.
