Evaluation of a Revised Field Medical Card for Navy and Marine Corps Personnel

Abstract

The Naval Health Research Center evaluated a revised Field Medical Card, developed by a quad-service working group. Field testing as well as testing under controlled conditions was conducted to determine whether or not the proposed card was an improvement over the current card. With respect to the criteria of Sufficiency, East of Use, and Simplicity, it was found that the new card was generally an improvement over the old card. However, some deficiencies of the old card persisted and some new problems were introduced. Therefore, it was concluded that some further revisions should be made to the Field Medical Card.
