Which form is used for a Complete Physical Examination?

• A. SF 88
• B. DD 2808
• C. SF 600
• D. DD 214

Answer: (B)

The complete physical examination is documented on the DD Form 2808, the Report of Medical Examination. This DoD form provides a standardized space for the clinician to record the full physical findings and overall fitness for service. It is used during entry into service and for periodic health assessments to determine if a service member is medically fit for duty, deployment, or continued service. The medical history portion is typically captured on the companion form, DD Form 2807-1, Medical History, but the actual exam results go on the 2808. Other forms serve different purposes: SF 88 is used for VA disability claims, SF 600 is the chronological record of medical care, and DD 214 is the discharge document.
