Title: Amendment to Final Regulations Regarding Commissioned Corps Physical Examinations
Abstract: This document contains an amendment to the final regulation currently published at 42 CFR 21.24 to allow the Assistant Secretary for Health greater flexibility in the assessment of the physical qualifications of candidates for appointment as commissioned officers in the Commissioned Corps of the U.S. Public Health Service (Corps). This approach would allow for the appointment of candidates prior to the completion of a physical examination, with the expectation that their commissions may be terminated or they may be given a limited tour of duty if they are thereafter found not to be physically qualified for extended active duty.
