All In Together

To successfully execute our strategy, we must take the right risks, innovate, test, and adapt. By doing so, we'll continue to make extraordinary health care experiences happen every day. We'll bring the joy back to practicing medicine and caring for our deserved population.

We will continue to deliver support to the Joint Staff Surgeon, Military Services, and Combatant Commands. Our services in blood management, logistics, training, and trauma support are essential to the readiness of our warfighters.

We are also leveraging business intelligence, technology, governance, and innovation to streamline operations and enhance support to our military partners.
