What is the timeframe for completing a MEB following a seizure?

The timeframe for completing a Medical Evaluation Board (MEB) following a seizure is 90 days. This timeline is established to ensure that medical professionals can thoroughly assess the individual's condition and treatment needs, taking into consideration the complexity of seizure disorders and any additional evaluations that may be required.

When seizures occur, a comprehensive evaluation is necessary to determine the impact on the individual’s military duties and overall health. This 90-day period allows sufficient time for the collection of medical records, consultations with specialists, and any necessary tests to ensure a complete understanding of the seizure condition before making a determinate recommendation regarding the individual's fitness for duty.

This timeframe also aligns with the procedural requirements established by military medical guidelines, ensuring that the MEB process is conducted efficiently while still prioritizing the health and operational readiness of the service member.
