Deferred or refused medical or dental treatment can impact IMR by what outcome?

Deferred or refused medical or dental treatment directly affects IMR because deployment readiness depends on having medical conditions addressed and up to date. When treatment is deferred or refused, there’s an unresolved issue, so the IMR status becomes non-deployable until the treatment is completed or an allowable waiver is granted by medical authorities. This ensures safety and mission readiness by making sure medical factors are properly managed before deploying. The other options don’t fit: delaying care does impact IMR; it doesn’t improve deployability by avoiding procedures; and it isn’t an automatic permanent disqualification since waivers or completed treatment can restore deployability.
