| Description |
This image is excerpted from a U.S. GAO report: www.gao.gov/products/GAO-15-184 DEFENSE HEALTH CARE: Additional Information Needed about Mental Health Provider Staffing Needs a) The Air Force Surgeon General does not have direct authority over Air Force MTFs; however, the Air Force Surgeon General exercises similar authority to that of the other Surgeons General through his role as medical advisor to the Air Force Chief of Staff. b) The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs is the principal advisor for all DOD health policies and programs. The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs (OASD HA) also has the authority to issue DOD instructions, publications, and memorandums that implement policy approved by the Secretary of Defense or the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness. c) DHA was established to support greater integration of clinical and business processes across the MHS. DHA manages the execution of policies issued by OASD HA, oversees the TRICARE health plan, and also exercises authority and control over the MTFs and subordinate clinics assigned to the NCR Medical Directorate. d) The NCR Medical Directorate was initially established as a DOD joint task force in September 2007 to operate DOD's medical facilities in the national capital region—including Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, Fort Belvoir Community Hospital, and their supporting clinics. The NCR Medical Directorate reassigned civilian personnel from the military services to the NCR Medical Directorate, while retaining military health care providers within the appropriate military service's command and control. |
