Integrated and Synergistic: The Joint, Coalition, & Interagency TeamThe Air Force is a part of a much bigger team doing the nation’s businessWe Organize, Train and Equip our Airmen to support joint, interagency and coalition partnersIn doing so, we must maintain interoperability as well as become an interdependent forceAll these organizations are our allies in this war on terror…we must seek to partner with them at every opportunity Jointness: Jointness refers to the mutual support and doctrinal understanding that must exist within all military services. Jointness is a state of mind as well as a statement of fact. It predisposes those who share its goals to emphasize the unique capabilities of the Nation's military services in planning and operations that are by design, from beginning to end, synergistic, cooperative, and interdependent. We are an integral part of a Joint team; jointness is really about synergy of the parts” Joint Connotes activities, operations, organizations, etc., in which elements of two or more Military Departments participate. To improve, we must build partnerships and interoperability to advance cradle to grave health deliveryThe best form of C2: collaboration and coordination As an AFMS we can expect to participate in more joint operations The AFMS has proven to be a vital partner within the USAF and with Joint Forces. Our vision confirms…and our record of performance demonstrates…we can and will provide quality healthcare and health service support anywhere in the world at anytime to support all of our military family, be they active duty, retired, or a family member. Let’s talk about our vision of the future and highlights of current operations.

AF Medical Service operates a total of 75 medical facilities throughout the world. We have 63 military treatment facilities (MTFs) in 34 states (including AK, HI) , the District of Columbia, and the US Territory of Guam.
Although our Command and Control system is through the Line (from the Wing Commander to the MAJCOM/CC to CSAF) , our budget dollars and MILCON funding comes from OASD(HA) Health Affairs. Our FY11 operating budget was $6.3B dollars allocated across the 6 areas.
Our integrated and overlapping mission areas of Fit Force, Casualty Care, and Resilient Families capture the three unique and dynamic environments in which the AFMS operates. Our homestation care to our beneficiaries underpins our readiness, builds resilient families and supports our Combatant Commanders by keeping our warfighters healthy and ready to deploy. In the deployed setting, AF medics provide both routine care and life-saving casualty care for our Joint and coalition forces. Additionally, AF medics also operate across the full spectrum of operations to include disaster response, humanitarian assistance, and partnership building with other nations. As a result, AF medics must be highly skilled and adaptable to operate in any environment under any condition. The relationship between Strategy, Common Practice and Cultureis the foundation of our framework for the future. Our Strategy ensures that we are properly aligned to achieve our vision. Our Common Practice reduces variability, improves organizational efficiency, and ensures we deliver the best care across the enterprise. Ultimately, through our Strategy and Common Practice, we create the environment and build the Culture that will enable us to sustain our high performing patient-centered organization and continue to deliver “Trusted Care Anywhere”. The three strategies to achieve our vision include:Transform deployable CapabilityBuild Patient-Centered CareInvest in Education, Training, and Research StrategyMust have plan for the present, near future and distant futureMust analyze risk, operational requirements, and future threats/demandsMust leverage personnel, resources, and partnerships for mission accomplishmentMust integrate Strategy, Culture, and Common Practice to create a sustainable organization Common PracticeReducing variability so that our customers get the same great service/outcome every time…no matter where they receive their careApplying EBM/lessons learned to deliver the best care CulturePatient Centered CareOur People are our most important resource and enable mission successContinuous improvement/learning organization Live each day…with the simple goal of making a difference some else’s life…a passion to simply leave your office, your next patient, the world better than you found it
Our People are the Key to Success: The AFMS exists to support the Combat Commanders both at home and abroad by deploying clinically current medics and keeping AF personnel mission ready for global operationsThe key to mission success is “Our People”…with all the technology in the world…nothing can replace the dedicated professional men and women who take care of our countries most precious resource. Additionally, through effective knowledge transfer, we are applying state-of-the-art procedures developed stateside to our global operations…with life-saving results. Similarly, our deployed care operations provide valuable lessons learned which in turn positively impact home station health care delivery. Through this cycle…our innovations can be sustained.

The AFMS has always conducted BP missions and is committed to further synchronize its effort to support ACS’ highly mobile, rapid, flexible, robust and integrated mission.Building Partnerships (BP) became a USAF core function in 2008; BP is now a Joint Capability Area (JCA) (one of 9 JCAs); SecAF & CSAF signed the AF Global Partnership Strategy (AFGPS) in Dec 2008. AFGPS establishes ends, ways and means to support CCDR objectives. Medical is listed under SSTR mean. For example, to Generate Goodwill or Gain Access, we conduct MEDCAP/DENCAP. To Build Trust, we conduct Subject Matter Expert Exchanges (SMEE). We establish Influence---conduct Train-the-trainer courses/share medical operating procedures and doctrine. Develop Capable Partner—Aerospace Medicine exchanges. Directly Intervene—HA/DR (HARRT)Global Health Engagement is one of the means the Air Force uses to partner with other nations to achieve health security cooperation, building partnerships and partner capacity objectives through health related activities and exchanges. Global health engagement activities allow for the AF Medical Service and Partner Nation (PN) armed forces, or foreign civilian authorities or agencies to build trust and confidence, share information, coordinate mutual activities, and maintain influence and achieve interoperability with PN. The Air Force uses the full spectrum of health capabilities and disciplines in both Mil-Mil and Mil-Civ engagement activities to build partner capacity, support security cooperation, and meet humanitarian objectives. Health engagement activities may include training, mentoring, planning, consultation, direct healthcare, and exercises in conjunction with national and international partners. Specific Health Engagement may include: Mil-Mil and Mil-Civ consultation and training in public health and preventive medicine, disaster/outbreak response, combat casualty care, aeromedical evacuation, expeditionary medical support, exercises, disease surveillance, medical and dental civic action programs, force health protection, veterinary medicine, health system, and medical logistics, facilities, and equipment repair. For FY09, our air components conducted over 40 missions treating over 100,000 patients. In addition, they conducted 3,500 optometry and 4,000 dental exams, and performed approximately 5,000 dental extractions. We also saw over 11,000 pediatric patients. Furthermore, our medics trained over 1,200+ host nation or partner nation medics. The Defense Institute for Medical Operations conducted 21 mobile courses, which resulted in the training of 850 foreign medics. Air Components are globally engaged: Medical Civic Action Programs; US Military Medical Training; Coalition Engagements; Theater Security Cooperation; Medical Readiness Training and Exercise
The Military Health System’s Quadruple Aim highlights the 4 priorities of our healthcare system….In the fall of 2009, MHS leaders recognized that our plan is consistent with the concept of the Triple Aim proposed by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) in October of 2007. The Triple Aim was intended to describe the kind of results that could be achieved when all of the elements of a true health care system worked together to serve the needs of a population. The MHS is a system dedicated to the health of the military family, and it seemed reasonable to adopt the Triple Aim with the addition of one key element – readiness. Readiness reflects our core mission and reason for being; it is first among our aims.ReadinessEnsuring that the total military force is medically ready to deploy and that themedical force is ready to deliver health care anytime, anywhere in support of the full range of military operations,including humanitarian missionsPopulation HealthImproving the health of a population by encouraging healthy behaviors and reducing the likelihood of illness throughfocused prevention and the development of increased resilienceExperience of CareProviding a care experience that is patient and family centered, compassionate, convenient, equitable, safe and always ofthe highest qualityResponsibly Managing the Total Health Care CostsCreating value by focusing on quality, eliminating waste, and reducing unwarranted variation; considering the total costof care over time, not just the cost of an individual health care activity

Institute for Health Care Improvement developed Triple Aim to focus improvement of care delivered in all areasMHS has adapted to develop QUADRUPLE AIM, with key component of readiness addedEnabling a medically ready force, a ready medical force, and resiliency of all MHS personnel.Improving quality and health outcomes for a defined population. Advocating and incentivizing healthy behaviors. Managing the cost of providing care for the population. Eliminate waste and reduce unwarranted variation; reward outcomes, not outputs. All metrics should sonehow point back to the Quadruple Aim
- The measures chosen are central to the concept of PCMH and already in use. They are all currently being tracked via a PCMH push report through the SG EGL website.* While Team satisfaction is measured, the MHPI “Satisfaction” measurement only includes Patient Satisfaction.
As of Dec 2011
MHPI uses standard PCMH Push Report measures. Data is already available and scores are the average of the three monthly scores for each measures. HEDIS is the exception where we use the last month of the period as the snapshot for HEDIS Composite score. MHPI Scores are heavily averaged and weighted and are used as a means to award incentive funds.
MTFs A and B are actual PCMH sites and the data is real.

GME: Since early 1970’s, many AF GME programs have been affiliated with civilian universities. Advantages: civilian faculty stability, exposure to diverse educators, broad spectrum clinical teaching sites. Master Affiliations with UTSA, Wright State Univ, Univ of MS, Univ Nebraska, St Louis University, UC Davis: they serve as sponsoring institutions for residencies. In addition, some of our stand alone residency programs have agreements for rotations at civilian sites. The AF has also integrated/affiliated with Army and Navy GME programs and has rotations at VA hospitals. Each service retains their specific identity within the integrated structure. The use of simulation labs is expanding. Expanding available teaching seats to 241.

Over the past decade, the military medical community has seen a dramatic growth in the volume of data collected within our system. This data represents a treasure trove of information that can be translated into knowledge and used for decision support. As we move forward with improving provider decision support systems like CarePoint, we must not forget about our patients. By Integrating WiFi and remote sensing devices or mobile applications with medication alerts or patient information, we can transform data into wisdom and ultimately change.
Our Joint Theater Trauma Registry is a great example of how we have used technology to build a database which has provided critical insights into how we manage our casualties. These lessons learned have been translated into clinical practice guidelines and are now being used across the DoD and have been shared with our civilian counterparts. Advances in remote monitoring and improvements with patient provider communication systems hold great potential for improving disease management thus supporting both better care and better health.

6 week long European Air Group Advanced Aerospace Medicine Course; in fact, this was the first time a USAF flight surgeon was able to attend this course, and did so by utilizing a British "training slot" in the course, which they graciously gave to us. Numerous international physicians, nurses, aerospace physiologists, and enlisted technicians coming to USAFSAM for training in our all of our courses, which certainlygreatly increases "...interoperability, integration, interdependence", hence: synergy. And there is also the USAFSAM Defense Institute of Medical Operations (DIMO) that travels to many countries around the world, providing training for a variety of operational medical subjects, again building interoperability, integration, interdependence, hence: synergy.ALL of these are "good news" stories, including the graduation this week of the Advanced Aerospace Medicine for International Medical Officers (AAMIMO) Course which is celebrating its 50th anniversary, being the 50th course of its kind, the 1st class graduating in 1960. More than 110 countries have participated in this course, and of its graduates, 37 have gone on to become the Surgeon General equivalent of their nation's military, as well as countless others who have gone on to serve in very senior ranking positions within their nation's military health service.
Modernization: Mission: Provide policy, guidance, resources, and oversight to integrate technology and deliver enhanced solutions to the AFMS, our warfighters, and the beneficiary community Six Modernization Thrust Areas(MTAs) are identified and codified in FY12-17 MPPG, based on the capabilities needed to support AFMS strategies. MTAs provide a key organizational mechanism to seek balance, continuity, and integration of the modernization portfolioEnroute Care: Continuum of care during transport of patients from point of injury to point of definitive care Expeditionary Medicine: Improving care during contingency ops; medical countermeasures against combat/operational stressorsForce Health Protection: Prevention of recognition injury/illness & the early or detection of emerging threats Health Informatics: Enriched IT service quality and effectiveness at MTFs Health Performance: Enhancing performance of Airmen in challenging environments Operational Medicine: Definitive patient care/treatment in-garrison
Shaping the Future of Military HealthcareDefinition of an "imperative": a philosophical concept that implies an obligation. For example, we have an obligation to deliver patient centered healthcare under a medical home construct or strategy via FHI as a key means. An imperative is and how we will support our priorities and shape our approach to our mission.Specifically, to assure success today and tomorrow, we are focused on the following theme:Patient-Centered Care: Patients want someone who cares with reliable and universally accessible information that allows active participation in their health care.Technology Integration: Our AFMS must continually monitor all (not just medical) technologies; understand how they will influence our AFMS mission, and rapidly integrate them.Synergy-Integration – Joint, Coalition, and Interagency: We must build partnerships and interoperability to advance cradle to grave health delivery. Precision Healthcare: We must minimize the cycle time from implementation of evidence-based medicine to common practice, and create incentives for prevention. Organizational Agility – Light, Lean, and Life Saving Capabilities: An organization that is able to respond, adapt, and influence changing environments quickly through agile processes as seen by changing approaches to acquisitions, facilities, technology; changing approaches to programming process, policy, and law. Process to adapt to changes, influence, changes, funding processes within the fiscal year, to respond between POM cycles.
