Anyone wishing to obtain copy of any of the decisions should submit a request for the decision under the federal Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Such requests should be directed to the PHS FOIA and Records Management Office, Bethesda Place, Suite 920, 7700 Wisconsin Ave, Bethesda, MD 20857 (note: use zip code 20814 if using either UPS or FedEx); telephone 301-492-4800; fax 301-492-4848; web address: FOIArequest@psc.hhs.gov

Requesters who ask for a decision usually want to receive only material that will help in understanding the process that led to the decision or to improve their own application to the Board. Before releasing information, we will redact information that would be an invasion of privacy if released. The following is a list of the types of information we routinely redact from completed Board for Correction cases:

  • Name of officer who files the application
  • Social security numbers
  • Birthdates
  • PHS Service Number
  • Personal address, telephone number, fax, and email address
  • Personal information of any family member or relative found in the file

In addition, we do not release US Court of Claims decisions for officers who request court decision on Board decisions because the release would identify the officer.
