As required by HIPAA law, Pathfinders has a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with Google. Google Forms adheres to the same robust privacy commitments and data protections as the rest of Google Cloud’s enterprise services.

Any retained PHI is located in a HIPAA-compliant secure Electronic Health Record. If you have any questions about this form, please call

IMPORTANT NOTICE

This pre-exam paperwork will be viewed by your evaluator prior to your evaluation appointment. BUT, it is NOT immediately monitored or viewed by anyone and, thus, not an avenue for immediate help if needed.

If you need immediate medical or psychological assistance, please call 911 or present to the closest emergency room.

If you are having thoughts, you may find calling the Veterans Crisis Hotline helpful. The Veterans Crisis Hotline can be reached by calling the new three-digit number: 988.

Instructions for completing the questionnaire:

* Completing the questionnaire takes between 20 and 40 minutes. Please plan accordingly.

* Your evaluator uses this questionnaire, the claims file, and the interview to create a thorough and accurate report for the VA.

1. Each section asks about your experiences BEFORE, DURING, and AFTER your military service. Some questions ask include before, during, after, and current experiences since things may be different now than they were when your military service ended.

2. For those still on active duty, you can either leave the "AFTER Military Service" questions blank or treat this as an assessment of your CURRENT status in this particular category is different than the majority of your military career (e.g., you drank heavily throughout your 10-year career, but you quit drinking and have not had alcohol in the past month.

3. If a question does not pertain to you, please leave it blank.

IMPORTANT: Use your phone or tablet HORIZONTALLY for ideal format.

(You may not be able to read all of the items properly if you do not.)
