Exceptional Family Member Program

(EFMP FMTS/FDI) 

The Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) is designed to make sure that the Air Force is able to support your family’s medical and educational needs. It is a mandatory enrollment program for all Active Duty Airmen who have one or more dependents that require special medical or educational support.

The Air Force has developed a new online process for this, but please feel free to reach out to your EFMP office with any questions or concerns.
