Book excerpt: The US Army Medical Department (AMEDD) is in the process of developing new concepts to support the Army's transformation. Its current mission is to conserve the fighting strength of US Army forces, providing force health protection to forces in a theater of operations; however, what about the future? What are the changes required to support the Army Future Force of 2025? The purpose of this monograph is to conduct a holistical examination of the US Army's medical functional areas starting with the Vietnam War and includes a current medical analysis of the US Army Future Force. The monograph considers not only historical trends from past reports, but also examination of a Future Force scenario by applying systematic analysis of Level 1 through 3 health care. The result is the capture of critical medical issues associated with medical support to support the Future Force in a contemporary environment.

This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-02.55 Army Health System Support Planning September 2015, replaces FM 8-55 and updates key planning topics while adopting current terminology and concepts as necessary. The AHS is a complex system of interrelated and interdependent systems which provides a continuum of medical treatment from point of injury or wounding through successive roles of medical care to definitive, rehabilitative, and convalescent care in the continental United States (CONUS), as required. Planning is an essential element which facilitates the successful accomplishment of the Army Medical Department (AMEDD) mission. The medical planner, by carefully applying AMEDD doctrine and principles, is able to provide the best possible AHS for all Army operations. The AHS provides support to forces deployed across the full range of military operations with its various operational arrangements. The AHS is a complex system of highly synchronized, interrelated and interdependent systems comprised of ten medical functions. It is a system of systems. The medical functions align with medical disciplines and specialty training with the capabilities required to provide state-of-the-art care to Soldiers regardless of where they are deployed or assigned. The functions include: medical mission command, medical treatment (area support), hospitalization, dental services, preventive medicine services, combat and operational stress control, veterinary services, medical evacuation, medical logistics, and medical laboratory. Army Techniques Publication 4-02.55 consists of four chapters and four appendixes as follows: Chapter 1 provides an overview of the characteristics of the AHS, its principles, functions, the role of medical care, and medical planning factors. It also discusses the fundamental aspects used by medical planners to determine the best possible AHS to support Army operations. Chapter 2 describes the ten medical functions and how they are aligned with specific medical disciplines of health service support (HSS) or force health protection (FHP) or sustainment medical tasks. It also provides the primary purposes of the functions to give the medical planner a planning reference point to work from. Chapter 3 provides guidance for some of the unique complexity inherent to AHS planning. It also provides a brief review of and references the Army planning process and how it applies to AHS planning. Chapter 4 discusses some of the many different and unique factors, terms, and computation the medical planner can use to develop the AHS estimate. Appendix A provides a detailed example of the AHS estimate with planning considerations. Appendix B provides an explanation of rate calculations and provides some of the more commonly used rate formulas. Appendix C provides an example and guidance on the preparation of an AHS appendix to an operation order (OPORD) or operation plan (OPLAN). Appendix D provides a methodology to manually calculate hospital bed requirements. It includes current and historical information to perform the calculations to assist in preparing the AHS estimate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, “Army Health System,” provides the capstone doctrine for the Army Health System (AHS) in support of the modular force. The Army Health System is the overarching concept of support for providing timely medical support to the tactical commander. It discusses the current medical force structure modernized under the Department of the Army (DA) approved Medical Reengineering Initiative and the Modular Medical Force that is designed to support the brigade combat teams and echelons above brigade units. As the Army's capstone medical doctrine statement, this publication identifies medical functions and procedures that are essential for operations covered in other Army Medical Department (AMEDD) proponent manuals. This publication depicts Army Health System operations from the point of injury, illness, or wounding through successive roles of care within the theater and evacuation to the continental United States (CONUS) support base. It presents a stable body of operational doctrine rooted in actual military experience and serves as a foundation for the development of AMEDD proponent manuals on how the AHS supports the modular force. The AHS is a component of the Department of Defense (DOD) Military Health System. It is responsible for the operational management of the health service support (HSS) and force health protection (FHP) missions for training, predeployment, deployment, and post deployment operations. The AHS includes all mission support services performed, provided, or arranged by the AMEDD to support HSS and FHP mission requirements for the Army and as directed, for joint, intergovernmental agencies, and multinational forces. Although Joint doctrine describes the capabilities of the Military Health System as a taxonomy of care, this description does not adequately address how the AMEDD must organize and equip its forces to successfully accomplish the health care delivery in the noncontiguous operational environment. Therefore, the AHS is in consonance with and supports the concept of the taxonomy of care, but AMEDD support is discussed in terms of capability packages specifically designed to support Army formations. Although the Military Health System is an interrelated system which may share medical services, capabilities, and specialties among the Service components, it is not a joint mission command system. Each Service component develops its medical resources to support its Service-specific mission. This results in the development of different types of organizations with varying levels of capability, mobility, and survivability. Although joint medical resources may have similar nomenclature to describe the unit, they are not usually interchangeable.

This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, "Army Health System Support to Maneuver Forces, ATP 4-02.3" addresses Army Health System (AHS) support to maneuver forces as we have seen in Field Manuals (FM) 4-02.4, FM 4-02.6, and FM 4-02.21. Army Health System resources (personnel and equipment) are organic to a variety of organizations within the brigade combat teams (BCTs). The numbers of personnel, medical equipment, and unit capabilities for providing organic AHS support also varies depending upon the parent formation/organization. It is essential for AHS planners to understand how AHS resources are arrayed across the battlefield and the capabilities and limitations of the various medical assets that are used across the range of military operations in support of the warfighting functions in the conduct of unified land operations and in pursuit of decisive action in any operational environment (OE). To facilitate this understanding, this publication uses the infantry brigade combat team (IBCT) base table of organization and equipment (TOE) for illustrative purposes only. Variances will exist between what is included in this publication and the actual modified TOEs of deployed units. These variances may be due to updates of areas of concentration (AOCs), military occupational specialties (MOSs), and military grades and modifications made to unit's TOE which result in the unit's modified TOE or updates to the base TOEs reflecting Total Army Analysis findings and judgments. Where significant differences exist in the base TOEs of the BCTs, an explanation of these differences is provided.

Army US Army Command and Staff College and published by . This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is a critical examination of Army Health System support to II Corps in the Tunisia Campaign in North Africa from 1942-1943. The Army Health System provided health service support to the 90,000 soldiers of II Corps in the inaugural campaign in the Mediterranean. This paper seeks to answer the question of how the Army Health System should evolve to support large-scale combat operations of today and the future. It presents the Army Health System of II Corps in the Tunisia Campaign and the contemporary Army Health System and large-scale combat operations, each as a case study. The study concludes that the Army Health System of World War II successfully generated the hospitalization and evacuation structure to support the Allied win in Tunisia. In contrast, the Army Health System of today is not adequate to support mission success in the rigors of large-scale combat operations. (Landeck, Bethany G.) The School of Advanced Military Studies (SAMS) is one of the parts of the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College (CGSC). Most SAMS students complete the regular CGSC course, then stay for a second academic year. They write either one or two monographs (depending on the requirement at the time) and are awarded a Master of Military Art and Science (MMAS) graduate degree. Most go on to planning jobs in field units. This collection contains all the publicly releasable monographs produced since the program began in 1986. SAMS monographs typically address historical events, current operational issues, or new organizational concepts.

Download or read book Army Techniques Publication Atp 4 02 43 Army Health System Support to Army Special Operations Forces December 2015 written by United States Army and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-01-18 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication, Army Techniques Publication ATP 4-02.43 Army Health System Support to Army Special Operations Forces December 2015, remains generally consistent with FM 4-02.43 on key topics while adopting updated terminology and concepts, as necessary. Army Health System support to ARSOF is challenging in that ARSOF are lightly equipped with limited organic support assets. Therefore, they must be self-sustaining in all areas of medical care throughout the range of military operations. Since they routinely operate in undeveloped joint operational areas without established support systems, ARSOF medical personnel must assume both AHS missions of health service support (HSS) and force health protection (FHP) responsibilities. Army Techniques Publication 4-02.43 contains the following six chapters and three appendixes: Chapter 1 provides an overview of AHS support and its mission to provide health care to Soldiers across the range of military operations. It identifies and discusses the purpose of the AHS, reviews the roles of medical care and the AHS principles. Chapter 2 discusses the missions and activities of ARSOF. It also examines ARSOF medical capabilities and the range of medical personnel and their responsibilities serving in ARSOF. Chapter 3 lists the AMEDD medical functions and their relationship to ARSOF. In addition, there is a comparison of AHS support between conventional forces and ARSOF. Chapter 4 discusses planning for AHS support to ARSOF. It focuses upon planning requirements for a number of core activities. Chapter 5 focuses upon AHS support to ARSOF in joint operations and the various considerations involved in joint task force (JTF) planning. Chapter 6 examines medical logistics (MEDLOG) support to ARSOF and its unique requirements. Appendix A provides an explanation of the law of war, which includes the Geneva Conventions, and the protections afforded to conventional medical personnel, medical aircraft, and medical materiel. Appendix B discusses medical evacuation planning in the support of ARSOF missions and units. Appendix C discusses the relationship between special operations (SO) mission command in the joint environment.
