Occupational Medicine Policy for Appointment No Shows
Due to the high demand for occupational medical exams, the 87th MDG has implemented a broken appointment policy for all members seen in the Occupational Medicine Clinic. A broken appointment results in a significant waste of resources and deprives fellow service members of timely medical qualification exams.
 
A broken appointment is defined as:
  • Not checking in with the receptionist within 10 minutes past the appointment time
  • Not showing up for a scheduled appointment
  • Cancelling any appointment within 24 hours of the appointment time
If a broken appointment occurs, 87th MDG leadership will take the following steps:
  • First offense: Member’s first sergeant will be contacted
  • Second offense: Member’s commander or senior enlisted leader will be contacted 
This policy is not designed to create a hardship for members; it’s intended to reduce wastage of limited resources and ensure all Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst personnel are mission-ready and medically qualified to safely perform their duties.
