Guidelines for Military-Medical Examinations with the New Induction Method (NIM) and All other Medical Examinations during Active Duty - Draft.

Abstract

In comparison with the former systems, the new induction system consists of a more intensive examination of the conscripts. Examinations are planned for a two-day period and take place in permanent induction centers; they are performed by permanently assembled medical teams. The examinations are oriented, on one hand, in a diagnostic routine towards the performance of the conscript and, on the other, the state of health of the inductee is determined as a prerequisite for the performance. The results of the examinations are stored in an ADP system. In addition, there are still possible evaluated diagnoses of the psychiatrists as well as the appraisal of the psychological examination. Using prior information, capabilities, school training and personal desires of the inductee taken as a whole, the computer is able--in accordance with a specific program--to compare the conscripts with the features required for the specific types of military service and to make selections.
