That's awesome to see movement from WL to acceptance. I've been sitting on WL but getting nervous because I have a remedial AMI from DODMERB to get done before I can even be considered for acceptance at this point. Quick question, have any of you been having difficulty being seen at a MTF? I have been trying to be seen at a MTF because DODMET doesn't have the required specialist in the area for me and will take more than a month to contract one and then who knows how long to get an appointment and then complete everything to be sent back to DODMERB for review. No one at the MTF (an AF MTF) knows what DODMERB even is and are not accepting the the consult referral even though I have the DOD reference stating they need to see me (below) which the DODMERB reviewer provided me. If any of you had this issue, how did you get it solved? I'm currently a reservist (prior active duty) so base access isn't an issue.

3.10. MEDICAL EXAMINATION.
d. All military medical treatment facilities will provide initial exams, specialty consults, medical tests, or any other commissioning evaluations to all accession applicants designated by the Department of Defense Medical Examination Review Board. A medical treatment facility will not be required to provide service for a capability it does not possess. The particular Service affiliation of the applicant will have no bearing on the selection of the medical treatment facility at which the applicant will be seen. The fact that these applicants may not have any association with the DoD or may not be enrolled in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System will not preclude them from being seen at a medical treatment facility. Applicant exams, consults, tests, and other commissioning evaluations will be treated as mission-related priorities with the scheduling precedence associated with active duty Service members.
