Healthcare Transformation in a Net-Centric Environment
Abstract
As a transformative perspective, this chapter discusses a specific area of DoD that is undergoing a large transformation to provide healthcare to today’s military and engage with the Department of Veterans Affairs to take care of veterans. We provide an overview of military medicine and veteran care, and discuss the important concept of the patient care continuum. We then discuss a continuum of care scenario for wounded warriors from DoD to VA. We describe the type of transformation that is being conducted in the Military Health System, and then provide a case study of a military health program known as Theater Medical Information Program (TMIP). We end with a transformation perspective on net-centric medicine provided by a retired DoD medical officer. In this chapter, as part of our section objective to address net-centric transformation perspectives, we provide a synopsis that specifically caters to the healthcare for our military warfighters and veterans. This then leads to the discussion of DoD Military Health System which is currently trying to transform itself to address Net Centricity. As part of this discussion, we describe the DoD Continuum of Care that happens for a warfighter from the point of injury in the battlefield all the way to him receiving veteran care. We use the Theater Medical Information Program (TMIP) as a net-centric example case study to address military healthcare requirements and the Net-Centric Key Performance Parameter mandates. The chapter then provides a guest author perspective on the DoD and VA healthcare transformation.
