Over the last several years, disasters, infectious disease outbreaks, and threats from foreign near-peer adversaries have demonstrated the need to improve the military-civilian medical surge augmentation capability to effectively respond to situations that result in an influx of patients disrupting daily operations.

Whether supporting the Global Health Security Agenda, the National Disaster Medical System, or battlefield missions, the ability to effectively manage medical surge capacity will have a direct impact on the effectiveness of saving lives, alleviating suffering, and maintaining human dignity while minimizing economic loss during times of crisis.

The webinar’s goal is to examine the issues, potential solutions, and technical advancements to address the military-civilian medical surge that is suited for our country’s needs now and in the future.
