New Behavioral Health Questions for Periodic Health Assessment

As congressionally mandated in NDAA 2015, the Army incorporated a brief series of behavioral health (BH) questions into the annual Periodic Health Assessment (PHA) to help identify certain health concerns such as anxiety, stress, or depression. While the PHA for Active Component Soldiers implemented these questions in 2014, the PHA for Guard and Reserve Soldiers will implement these questions in June or July 2015.
