Testing Concerns AR , 15–19. Drug testing rate and the NCARNG Drug Testing Policy - Company/troop commanders will randomly test 10 percent of their available Soldiers each month or 25 percent each quarter. Units are not meeting their quarterly regulatory percentages. Units need to notify the DTC if they need supplies.

Open ADC/MRO Cases The number of open cases and the number of ADC Packets may vary if more than one test is sent forward for a Soldier in one packet. New online tracker – Currently creates a case number, allows for various reports and provides visibility of packet work levels by case number on SharePoint. Help ticket input system on NCGKO Allows for MSCs to upload and forward ADC packets and/or prescriptions to G1 without bogging down the or using group inboxes. Cases 181 days plus numbers are slowly starting to rise. Units need to be closing out the old cases. Units need to be tracking TAG decisions, completing the new counseling for individuals that do not wish to meet the AG imposed requirements for continuation in service.

Medical Review Officer (MRO)
Lack of MROs / Full time MRO – often creates delay in processing outside of the regulatory 15 days from receipt of prescriptions MSC PAs being trained and appointed as MROs, CPT Adam Clark has already completed training and appointed by the TAG to be the MRO for the 30th ABCT. MAJ Salerno from Med Det, 60th Troop Command is now certified and assisting at state level. State MRO SOP in review MRO’s are appointed by the NGNC TAG and complete MEDCOM-sponsored training and certification within 6 month of appointment according to AR Regulation and prior to performing any MRO reviews. MEDCOM is the final determination in the Drug and Alcohol Management Information System (DAMIS).

NCARNGSAP Best Practices
The NCARNG Substance Abuse Program (NCARNGSAP) office will continue to implement the program elements of (Service, Assessment, and Prevention). Effect Service-Provide the Substance Abuse Services Initiative (SASI) No Cost Voucher for all Soldiers to ensure they receive an opportunity to obtain a free Substance Use Assessment. Assessment-Collaborate with Readiness NCOs to schedule Unit Risk Inventory (URI) mail-outs. Prevention-Collaborate with Readiness NCOs to schedule Strong Choices Prevention training. FY15 (1,772 of 10,182) Soldiers completed Strong Choices prevention training. FY15 (2,813 of 10, 182) Soldiers completed the Unit Risk Inventory. FY15 (216) Unit Prevention Leaders received Strong Choices Training Success Stories The NCARNGSAP showed improvement in program facilitation for FY15. However, note that end of year results show sparse participation in the use of prevention tools; Strong Choices prevention training (17%) and Unit Risk Inventory assessment (28%) of the NCARNG total strength (10,182). Recommendation: “The focus of effort for FY16 will be to increase Soldier participation by strongly encouraging Commanders to have an (80%) or greater E-6 and below yearly completion rate. E-6 and below represent (80%) of NCARNG structure. Encouragement of this rank category would facilitate an increase of program participation for FY16. Commanders are encouraged to make continued use of Risk Reduction tools.” Trends Noticed Assistance Needed Where Assistance is Needed FY16 Strong Choices prevention training completion FY16 Unit Risk Inventory (URI) completion FY16 Reintegration-Unit Risk Inventory completion Recommended Approach Socialize the benefit of Strong Choices prevention training to MSC Commanders; encouraging training completion for Soldiers (E-6 and below)
