Which statement is true about the Deployable Health Record?

• A. It houses immunizations and prophylaxis information
• B. It is a subset of the Medical Record
• C. It is used only for dental records
• D. It contains only occupational health data

Answer: (A)

The Deployable Health Record is a deployment-focused health record that carries the data you need for readiness in the field. The statement that it houses immunizations and prophylaxis information is true because knowing a service member’s vaccine history and any preventive medication plans is essential for rapid health verification and safe, effective deployments. This record is designed to provide quick access to those items when a full medical file isn’t readily at hand, supporting mission planning and medical decision-making in operational settings. It isn’t simply a subset of the Medical Record, and it isn’t limited to dental records or to occupational health data—the immunization and prophylaxis information are the core elements that enable deployment readiness.
