Which role is primarily responsible for creating and managing cases in the VTA?

• A. Commander
• B. Medical Officer
• C. HR Specialist
• D. PEBLO

Answer: (D)

The PEBLO is the person whose duties center on handling the medical evaluation workflow, including creating and maintaining cases in the VTA. This role acts as the liaison, loading case information, tracking required steps, scheduling exams, and communicating updates between the Soldier, medical providers, and command. The commander oversees the process but does not manage the day-to-day case work in VTA, the Medical Officer focuses on clinical assessments, and the HR Specialist handles general personnel actions—not the medical-case management that the VTA requires.
