This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "After more than a decade of war, the military services have many returning personnel with mental health needs, and thus the United States needs to ensure that it has the capacity to address their needs. Officer special and incentive (S & I) pays are used to create incentives for officer retention to meet manning requirements. However, no capability exists to assess how alternative S & I pay adjustments affect the retention of mental health care officers, and, as a result, policymakers lack an analytical and empirical basis for determining the effect of such adjustments on retention. The authors of this report adapt RAND's dynamic retention model (DRM) to handle multiyear special pay and develop estimates of expected military and civilian pay over a career, which are needed inputs to the model. Using longitudinal data on officer retention for entry cohorts from 1990 to 2000 followed to 2010, the authors obtain DRM parameter estimates for psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, occupational therapists, physician assistants, and social workers. Nearly all estimates are statistically significant, and the estimated models fit the data well. To demonstrate the needed capability, the authors use the estimated models to simulate the retention effects of alternative S & I pays."--Publisher's description.

This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. military has been continuously engaged in foreign conflicts for over two decades. The strains that these deployments, the associated increases in operational tempo, and the general challenges of military life affect not only service members but also the people who depend on them and who support them as they support the nation â€" their families. Family members provide support to service members while they serve or when they have difficulties; family problems can interfere with the ability of service members to deploy or remain in theater; and family members are central influences on whether members continue to serve. In addition, rising family diversity and complexity will likely increase the difficulty of creating military policies, programs and practices that adequately support families in the performance of military duties. Strengthening the Military Family Readiness System for a Changing American Society examines the challenges and opportunities facing military families and what is known about effective strategies for supporting and protecting military children and families, as well as lessons to be learned from these experiences. This report offers recommendations regarding what is needed to strengthen the support system for military families.
Download or read book Health Professions Retention accession Incentives Study Report to Congress written by Shayne Brannman and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The military Health System (MHS) must execute twin missions. The primary mission of the MHS and the three Service medical departments is force health protection. This readiness mission involves providing medical support in combat and other military operations and maintaining the day-to-day health of about 1.5 million men and women who serve in the Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps. The second mission is to provide a health care benefit to nearly 6.6 million other people who are eligible to use the MHS. Because the Department of Defense (DoD) relies on a single force to meet the sometimes disparate missions, it must cultivate a workforce that is dedicated to caring for patients, committed to continuous improvement in performance and productivity, and competent in both wartime and peacetime. This challenge is particularly difficult because uniformed health care professionals are costly to access and train, and they have skills that are in demand in the private sector. Congressional awareness of this mandate and competition from the private sector for qualified health care professionals resulted in the following committee language in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal year 2001: 'The committee directs the Secretary of Defense to conduct a review and to report to the Committee on Armed Services of the Senate and the House of Representatives on the adequacy of special pays and bonuses for medical corps officers and other health care professionals. The committee directs this review because of the level of competition within the economy for health care professionals and the potential devaluation of current special pays and bonuses, which could have a significant impact on recruiting and retention of health care professionals'. As a result of this language, the TRICARE Management Agency (TMA) asked CNA to address the concerns voiced by Congress.

Download or read book Behavioral Health Care in the Military Health System written by Kimberly A. Hepner and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geographic location can be a barrier to accessing and receiving high-quality behavioral health care for both civilians and military personnel. As a consequence, service members who reside far from military treatment facilities may be at higher risk for poorer clinical outcomes than those who are less remotely located. The authors evaluate remote service members' access to Military Health System (MHS) care for those with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, or substance use disorder (SUD) and assess the quality of the behavioral health care they received. The report highlights how quality-measure performance varies by remote status, focusing on differences in quality of care that are large and potentially clinically significant. The authors also discuss policy implications and offer recommendations for how the military can use new strategies-including synchronous telehealth or technology-enabled interventions-to ensure access to high-quality care for all service members, regardless of location.
