From the summary: "All Service Members are required to meet individual medical readiness (IMR) requirements and report health issues that may affect their readiness to perform their duties. Historically, IMR rates have been lower for Reserve Components (RCs) relative to their respective Active Components (ACs). Managing IMR is believed to be a greater challenge for RCs for the following reasons: Reserve Component Service Members (RCSMs) spend less time with their units, they receive most of their healthcare outside the Military Health System (MHS), and in some cases, they lack health and/or dental insurance coverage."
