Theater Medical Information Program Joint Increment 2 (TMIP J Inc 2)
Abstract
The Theater Medical Information Program - Joint (TMIP-J) integrates components of the Military Health System (MHS) sustaining base systems and the Services medical information systems to ensure timely interoperable medical support for mobilization, deployment, and sustainment of all Theater and deployed forces in support of any mission. TMIP-J enhances the clinical care and information capture at all levels of care in Theater, transmits critical information to the Theater Commander; the evacuation chain for combat and non-combat casualties; and forges the theater links of the longitudinal health record to the sustaining base and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). TMIP-J is the medical component of the Global Combat Support System (GCSS). TMIP-J provides information at the point of care and to the Theater tactical and strategic decision makers through efficient, reliable data capture, and data transmission to a centralized Theater database. This delivers TMIP-J's four pillars of information support through the electronic health record; integrated medical logistics; patient movement and tracking; and medical command and control through data aggregation, reporting and analysis tools for trend analysis and situational awareness. TMIP-J fulfills the premise of "Train as you fight" through the integration of its components which are identical or analogous to systems from the sustaining base. TMIP-J adapts and integrates these systems to specific Theater requirements and assures their availability in the no- and low- communications settings of the deployed environment through store and forward capture and transmission technology.
