Summary:

This report provides information on Defense Department procedures used to reassign personnel with disabled children, who often have special educational or therapy needs. GAO discusses (1) whether disproportionate numbers of personnel who have children with disabilities are transferred inappropriately to military bases in some states, such as Washington; and (2) the status of efforts to resolve disputes that have arisen between the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services and the states over who should pay for services provided to these children.
