Wounded, Ill and Injured Program
Abstract
Care Management, Disability Evaluation, and Transition Systems IM/IT. Funding includes development of web-based tools for use in overseeing the Service member recovery and facilitating resolution of disability and transition processing issues. In FY 2008, the Departments of Defense and VA made significant progress leveraging the Veterans Tracking Application with access to existing Department of Defense Care Management (CM) tools and resources. The work continued through FY 2009 with a prototype dashboard that leverages existing case management tools and resources in a single sign on construct, and continued in FY 2010 to include further enhancements of the prototype and integration of care management models. The Department of Defense’s request includes funding for development of content management systems. Justification: Non-medical Care Managers are responsible for provide oversight of welfare and quality of life issues. They assist the service member and family in resolving problems involving financial, administrative, personnel, and other non-medical issues that may occur during the recovery, rehabilitation and reintegration phases across the continuum of care. Full funding will provide the capability for DoD Case Managers to view non-clinical data on a Wounded Warriors from one location. FY 2009 funding began the implementation of the July 2007 Dole-Shalala Recommendations and initial development of the 2008 NDAA required comprehensive policy. During FY 2010, the Recovery Care Plan systems solution was developed and underwent Government Acceptance Testing. RCP-SS systems deployments began in 3Q10 to selected field locations.
