If they do neither then they are considered to have avoided it intentionally.
Seems kinda strange to require someone to actively seek out something that for everyone else seeks them out. How do you address the issues you mentioned earlier, about people who don't have a car or for whatever other reason can't (or don't know they should) seek out the evaluation?
All males are already required to fill out a Selective Service form, and proving you did already required to receive certain government benefits.
There are many methods this can be achieved, the form can have a self assessment, and be available online, at schools, requested for free by phone or mail, all post offices, court houses, etc. thus that it is possible for everyone to get one. Then using the self assessment as a basis people could be called in for a in person assessment as needed, and if they have no transportation, transportation provide for them. And any public transportation user refunded, and an advance requested.
But actually having to make a little effort to do it is not bad, that is kind of the point, you having to actively do something to contribute to your societal responsibilities.
