Market Assessment of Two Overseas Military Treatment Facilities (MTFs)

Abstract

Overseas military treatment facilities often serve small beneficiary populations, which results in low volumes of care and high unit costs. These issues have led Department of Defense (DoD) leadership to question whether some of these facilities may be downsized to outpatient-only facilities. Downsizing requires DoD to rely on host nation facilities for inpatient services. This report examines the business case for closing inpatient product lines for two Navy facilities in southern Italy.
