A recently released report from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) found shortfalls in the implementation of military health system (MHS) reforms focused on enhancing medical readiness.
The report, Actions Needed to Define and Sustain Wartime Medical Skills for Enlisted Personnel, assesses progress against an MHS reform requirement to better define and assess critical wartime readiness skills of health care providers. GAO found DoD could do more to define, track, and assess wartime medical skills of enlisted personnel and made 30 recommendations for improvements, including that military departments fully define wartime medical skills for enlisted medical subspecialties, track skills training, and establish performance goals and targets for training completion.
GAO also recommended that DoD develop metrics to assess how military treatment facility (MTF) workload and civilian partnerships sustain these skills. DoD concurred with GAO’s recommendations.

There's a time and a place for everything, but I'm with you Sgt. Cecil don't like tracking.

Interesting. I wonder if the metrics they use are beneficial to supporting revised training standards or showing deficiencies in the medical care available.
