Which stratification designates members who should not be deployed or assigned away from specialty medical capability required to manage their unique medical condition?

• A. ALC Y with a C2 stratification
• B. ALC Y with a C3 stratification
• C. TDRL Examinations
• D. Waiver Review

Answer: (B)

Stratification and availability codes are used to show whether a service member can be deployed and, if so, under what medical constraints. An availability level code marked with a “Y” indicates the person is not deployable. The accompanying stratification level (C3) signals that the individual requires a specialty medical capability to manage their condition and cannot be treated adequately away from that capability. When you combine those two, it clearly designates someone who should not be deployed or moved away from the specialty medical resources required to care for them.

The other options address different processes (temporary retirement examinations or waiver reviews) that don’t specifically identify someone as nondeployable due to needing a particular specialty capability.
