• 0-89 Days:  The PDHRA stoplight will be green following a return from deployment to a combat zone if you completed the Post-Deployment Health Assessment (PDHA).
• 90-180 Days:  During the 90 to 180 days following a return from deployment, the stoplight will turn to Amber, indicating the need to complete the PDHRA (this is the target window during which you should complete your PDHRA).
• After 180 Days:  The PDHRA stoplight will be Red, indicating non-compliance with the PDHRA requirement.  When you complete the PDHRA requirement, to include the HCP interview, the stoplight in AKO MODS Medical Readiness Portal will turn Green.

The PDHRA screening is not complete when the Soldier completes their portion of the DD Form 2900 online – the Soldier is still required to complete the interview with a HCP. The PDHRA is complete when the HCP fills in and electronically signs the DD Form 2900.

Yes, you are required to complete the PDHRA during the prescribed time period, because issues develop over time and may become more prevalent down the road. Documentation in the PDHRA can be a reference for future medical/disability claims.
