Medpros Army Portal
In the Medpros Army Portal, you have to login first so that you are able to check your medpros. Here are the steps to login to the portal to access your medpros according to Find My Answer.
- The first thing that you need to do is to log in to AKO by using your CAC card or using your login ID and password.
- When you are on the homepage of AKO, then you must go to My Medical Readiness Status.
- After that, you must click on the More option and then choose Periodic Health Assessment.
If you access armyknowledgeoffline.com, there is a My Medpros Medical Readiness Portal menu. However, when I clicked on it, it did not respond and there is a note that it only works on DOD networks.
