This legislation aims to enhance the process of transferring electronic health records for members of the Armed Forces who are separating from active duty. It requires the Secretary of Defense to submit a comprehensive report to congressional defense committees within 180 days, detailing the current timeliness of providing these records. The report must include data on average and maximum wait times for servicemembers to receive their records, along with explanations for any delays observed over the preceding year. Following this report, the Secretary is mandated to establish clear standards within 270 days to ensure that transitioning servicemembers receive their electronic health records within a reasonable period . This reasonable period will be defined by the Secretary, taking into account the report's findings and the perspectives of separating servicemembers and veterans.
