If the CPD is electronic, the FO may transfer the EXR request to the servicing DDS.
If the CPD folder is paper, the FO must wait for the receipt of the paper CPD folder
before transferring the EXR request to the servicing DDS. DDS will need the comparison
point decision (CPD) folder to make the EXR medical determination. If the CPD folder
is paper, follow folder retrieval instructions in DI 13015.030 through DI 13015.250, and DI 40525.020 through DI 40525.150. If you are unable to locate the CPD folder, follow instructions in DI 13015.080 and DI 13015.090. If the CPD folder was processed in EDCS, you will be able to "link" it to the EXR
case when you create it in EDCS. Note: Completing the "REQUEST FOLDER (Y): " field on the DRES screen will not result in
the prior file being sent to you. You will need to request any prior paper folder
through PCACS, following normal procedures.
