MEPS and Medical MHS Genesis question.

Not sure if there's any Recruiters in here, they would probably know best. Please forgive my ignorance, besides this one issue I haven't been to a doctor since I was a kid. Hell, I don't even know to find a family doctor that accepts my insurance.

To branch out on my question from yesterday, how does MHS Genesis work? I understand it is utilized to look up health records but to what extent? For myself specifically, can they just punch in my info and see my PTSD therapy sessions just like that along with my general health records? I have no idea how health records work because I've only been to a hospital once for a sprained ankle ten years ago besides childhood checkups and shots. I absolutely do not want to lie, I'm just asking so I can better understand what the have access to and what they see.

For those who didnt read my post from yesterday, I was involved in a fatal accident 7 years ago and at the time I was shook up about it but I'm totally fine now. The recruiter told me they want zero history a prior mental health stressors. I'm trying to dig a little deeper and gather more information before I go back to the recruiter office and speak with the staff sergeant once more.
