Description

Statement of Rear Admiral Thomas Cullison, MC, USN, Deputy Surgeon General of the Navy Before the Subcommittee on Military Personnel and Subcommittee on Terrorism and Unconventional Threats and Capabilities of the House Armed Services Committee.

"CURRENT SYSTEMS DEPLOYED AT NAVY MTFs
Military medicine pioneered electronic patient information. The Composite HealthCare System (CHCS) provided electronic availability of ancillary services such as laboratory and radiology results, as well as scheduling and pharmacy information. The ability to electronically prescribe pharmaceuticals within DoD MTFs markedly increased patient safety using automated checks of each patient’s medication record and eliminated transcription errors. This system is now dated in design and functionality. Although these capabilities were updated with solutions including Radiological Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS), pharmacy automation systems, and numerous laboratory automated systems, complete integration remains a future goal.

Navy MTFs utilize the Theater Medical Information Program-Joint (TMIP-J) and TRANSCOM Regulating and Command & Control Evacuation System (TRAC2ES) to coordinate care for returning casualties. These systems provide clinical and demographic information from other treating facilities, including those in Iraq, Afghanistan and other operational theaters. Delays were prevented and safety was enhanced throughout our system."
