New DoD Timelines for IDES process

The Department of Defense recently updated the timelines for processing of IDES cases. The resource for DoD Directive-Type Memorandum (DTM)-18-004 – “Revised Timeliness Goals for the Integrated Disability Evaluation System (IDES)," can be found here:

https://www.pebforum.com/resources/...04-revised-timeliness-goals-for-the-ides.100/

I intend to post a detailed timeline at each phase in the future. For now, know that the overall processing of IDES cases should be processed faster (from 295 days to 230 days- basically, two months faster).

Note the effective date is July 30, 2018.

They weren't meeting their own timetable in many instances, so that they set the bar higher.
