In the United States, the military medical system, including care for veterans, is large and diverse and involves two institutions, the US Department of Defense (DoD) and the US Department of Veteranʹs Affairs (VA). Studying the system gives practitioners and policy-makers an understanding of the larger picture of the military medical structure, facilitating thought about some of the difficulties and opportunities for coordinating treatments and preparing for the future. This book covers health care issues prior to deployment, such as screening for mental health, evaluating long-term consequences of exposure to military service, and provision of insurance; care during a conflict, primarily battlefield clinics, battlefield trauma care, and evacuation procedures; and post- combat care, including serious war injuries, psychiatric, and long-term care. Bringing together research from a wide range of contributors, the volume provides readers with an extensive, up-to-date source of information on military medicine. -- Publisher descriptionCass military studies.VeteransMedical careUnited StatesMedicine, MilitaryUnited StatesUnited StatesArmed ForcesMedical careVeteransMedical careMedicine, Military355.3/450973Amara Jomana1961-1530294Hendricks Ann M.1947-1530295MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910786414403321Military health care3775280UNINA
