Navy Medicine Readiness and Training Command with Naval Health Clinic Lemoore provide a step by step description of the Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES) process.
The IDES process is the joint DoD-VA process by which DoD determines whether Wounded, Ill, or Injured (WII) service members are fit for continued military service and by which DoD and VA determine appropriate benefits for service members who are separated or retired for a service-connected disability. Although the IDES includes medical examinations, IDES processes are administrative in nature and are independent of clinical care and treatment. The IDES scope includes all medical examinations and all administrative activities associated with IDES case management from the point of referral by a military medical care provider to the point of return to duty or completion of the VA’s benefits decision letter, including the management of service members who are temporarily or permanently retired for disability through the IDES.
