We were informed by Mr. Heilman, the chief informatics officer with the Canadian Armed Forces health information system, that they're working on this improvement, getting medical records to VAC. They say that when they request them, and when the individual armed forces member requests them, would it not be much faster if they just immediately filled out a form that said, “When needed, my medical records are available to VAC”? Are adjudicators and service officers able to see those records directly, or how do you get them?
