History of oculocutaneous albinism, Neurofibromatosis I (Von Recklinghausen's Disease), Neurofibromatosis II, and tuberous sclerosis

What This Code Means

Receiving DQ code D112.32 means the DoDMERB physician reviewer determined that your medical history or exam findings related to history of oculocutaneous albinism, neurofibromatosis i (von recklinghausen's disease), neurofibromatosis ii, and tuberous sclerosis do not currently meet Department of Defense accession standards as defined in DoDI 6130.03.

This does not end your candidacy. Many conditions flagged under this code are waiverable. The next step is understanding the exact standard that applies to your situation and whether a waiver request is appropriate for your commissioning source.
