AF Form 618 is associated with which process?

• A. Physical Evaluation Board
• B. Narrative Summary
• C. Recovery Plan
• D. Medical Evaluation Board

Answer: (D)

AF Form 618 is tied to the Medical Evaluation Board process. The Medical Evaluation Board is the formal medical review used when a service member has a condition that may affect duty and could lead to questions about medical retention standards. It gathers medical evidence, reviews findings, and makes recommendations about fitness for duty and potential referral to the Physical Evaluation Board for a disability rating. In short, AF Form 618 documents the medical evaluation and the recommendations of the MEB, which is the step before the PEB. The Physical Evaluation Board comes later to determine disability disposition, the Recovery Plan isn’t the formal process here, and while a Narrative Summary can appear in the MEB packet, it isn’t the process itself.
