AFSC 4N051 SKT Module 2 Practice Exam

What is the SICK SLIP, and when is a DD Form 689 used?

A travel authorization. A leave request form. A basic medical report. A DD Form 689 used to document a patient’s quarters when ASIMS is unavailable or the provider is working with another branch of service.

Correct Answer:

A DD Form 689 used to document a patient’s quarters when ASIMS is unavailable or the provider is working with another branch of service.

Explanation:

A Sick Slip is a manual way to track a service member’s medical status and where they should reside (their quarters) when the electronic medical system isn’t available or the clinician is working with another branch of service. In these situations, the DD Form 689 is used to document the patient’s quarters location and related status because the usual digital records (ASIMS) can’t be accessed or a cross-service provider is involved. This form provides a temporary, paper record to ensure the member is cared for and properly supervised while the electronic system or cross-service coordination is resolved. It’s not for travel authorization, leave requests, or a basic medical report—those have different forms and purposes.
