In keeping with the guidance set forth in the Army-Wide Preparedness and Response to the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Outbreak, the following EFMP process changes are in effect:
What is the EFMP?
The EFMP supports families with special medical and educational needs. Each branch has its own EFMP and enrollment process. You can enroll in the EFMP during duty assignment.
EFMP family support services are also available at your installation. The family support services team is your main point of contact for EFMP information. They can connect you with:
- Military Support Services and Resources
- Community Support Services and Resources
The family support services team can also answer specific EFMP questions based on your branch or installation.
Virtual OCONUS Screens
OCONUS screens are conducted via an audio-visual platform, instead of face-to-face. Soldiers and family members may initiate the process by bringing or emailing their DA Form 5888 (Family Member Deployment Screening Sheet) to FBCH EFMP Clinic. DA Form 5888 must be signed by Military Personnel Division prior to submission to our office.
If you have questions regarding a required EFMP and Overseas Screening actions, please call 571-231-1054 or email the local EFMP Mail box dha.belvoir.fbch.mbx.efmp1@mail.mil.
