What is the physical exam processing program (PEPP)?

• A. A mobile app for scheduling physicals
• B. A web-based program used to store flight and SOD exams utilizing DD form 2807-1 and DD form 2808
• C. A database for training records only
• D. A paper-based filing system for archiving old records

Answer: (B)

PEPP is a web-based system that securely stores aircrew medical examinations by digitizing and housing the data from DD Form 2807-1 (Medical History) and DD Form 2808 (Report of Medical Examination). This central repository streamlines medical readiness for flight by letting medical staff and commanders view current qualifications, upcoming expirations, and any waivers in one accessible place, instead of dealing with scattered paper files. It’s not just a scheduling tool, a training-record database, or a paper-based archive; it specifically handles flight and SOD exams using the standard forms to maintain ready-to-fly status.
