DAF Form 110: Electronic Medical Device Request & Approval

DAF Form 110: Electronic Medical Device Request & Approval – If you serve in the U.S. Air Force (USAF), U.S. Space Force, or support Department of the Air Force (DAF) operations and require an electronic medical device (EMD) in secure or classified environments, DAF Form 110 is the official tool for requesting approval. Released on February 21, 2023, this form streamlines the process for authorizing medically necessary devices while maintaining operational security.

What Is DAF Form 110?

DAF Form 110, titled DAF Electronic Medical Device Request Form & Approval Card, serves as both a request document and a portable approval card. It enables DAF personnel to seek authorization for electronic medical devices such as:

  • Hearing aids
  • Continuous glucose monitors
  • Heart rate monitors
  • Breast pumps
  • Other FDA-regulated wearable or portable medical devices

The form ensures these devices meet security standards for introduction into areas handling classified information, including collateral open storage, restricted areas, and certain Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs) where policies align.

Why DAF Form 110 Matters for USAF and DAF Personnel?

Modern medical technology supports health and readiness, but electronic devices pose potential risks (e.g., wireless emissions, data storage, or recording capabilities) in secure facilities. DAF Form 110 balances mission security with personnel wellness by requiring documented approval.

Key benefits include:

  • Standardized Process — Clear request and approval workflow.
  • Portability — Approved card allows daily entry/exit with the device.
  • Compliance — Aligns with DAF security policies, DoD guidelines on portable electronic devices (PEDs), and evolving Intelligence Community standards for EMDs.
  • One-Year Validity — Approvals typically last up to one year, requiring renewal.

This form pairs with DAF Form 111 for personal wearable fitness devices, showing the DAF’s structured approach to personal electronics in professional settings.

Who Needs to Use DAF Form 110?

  • Active-duty Air Force and Space Force members
  • DAF civilians and contractors working in secure facilities
  • Anyone requiring medically necessary electronic devices in classified or restricted areas
  • Personnel entering facilities with specific security protocols (e.g., Minot AFB or other installations with strict PED rules)

Note: Non-DoD visitors may need alternative waiver documentation in some contexts.
