Abstract

This need responds to the guidance contained in the Department of Defense Planning Guidance (DPG) FY 1997-2001; ASD(HA) Memorandum, 31 Mar 1995, Medical Program Guidance, FY 1997-2001; ASD(HA) DoD Corporate Information Management Strategic Plan and Enterprise Integration Implementing Strategy, Goals 2, 3, and 4; the Military Health Services System Automated Information Systems Plan: ASD(HA) Medical Readiness Strategic Plan 2001, 20 Mar 1995. The mission of the Theater Medical Information Program (TMIP) is to provide integrated automation of the theater medical environment. The TMIP will provide for information linking all echelons of medical care to the theater commanders in support of time-sensitive decisions critical to the success of theater operations. In addition, the TMIP will provide support integrating medical capabilities under a joint concept of operations to assist the medical commander/theater surgeon and to support the delivery of seamless combat medical care. The TMIP will support field medical operations and decision making concerning theater medical capability by providing oversight and evaluation of critical command, control, communications, computer and intelligence (C4I) health decision support systems to assure readiness for mission execution. The TMIP will support all echelons of care through an aggregation of medical data and situational reports that serves the theater of operations as well as the CONUS sustaining base medical missions.
