Medical Protection System

(UMR). Commanders and personnel officers are allowed under the UMR command drilldown option in MEDPROS to
track the medical status of their Soldiers. Commanders should pay particular interest to:

(1) Dental fitness category (see paragraph H-7).

readiness class 3 will require a review by an audiologist to determine if a waiver provided at entrance can be annotated
as such in MEDPROS. If required, the audiologist will perform an audio logical assessment and conduct appropriate
profiling to meet the requirements for hearing readiness class 3.
