Casualty Care (MC4), Fort
Detrick, MD Mission
Product Manager (PdM) MC4 integrates, fields and supports a medical
information management system for Army tactical medical forces,
enabling a comprehensive, lifelong electronic medical record for all
Service members, and enhancing medical situational awareness for
operational commanders. By accomplishing this mission, the MC4 is
providing the Armys solution to Presidential and
Congressional objectives, set-forth by Title 10 in 1997, which called
for a medical tracking system for all deployed Service members.
Description
MC4 is a ruggedized system of systems containing medical software
packages fielded to deployed medical forces throughout theater.
Comprised of joint software (Theater Medical Information Program), and
commercial-off-the- shelf and government-off-the-shelf products, MC4
provides the tools needed to record and transfer data from the foxhole
to brick-and-mortar facilities worldwide. As a result, MC4 creates a
bridge between the tactical and sustaining base IM/IT healthcare
systems, connecting the battlefield to the Continental United States.
Deployed medical forces use
the MC4 system to gain quick, accurate access to patient histories and
forward casualty resuscitation information. The system also provides
units with automated tools facilitating patient tracking, medical
reporting and medical logistical support. Meanwhile, combatant
commanders worldwide use the MC4 system to access medical surveillance
information, resulting in enhanced medical situational awareness.
Most importantly, MC4 is helping deployed Soldiers. By equipping
deployed medical units with automated resources, MC4 helps ensure
Soldiers have a secure, accessible, lifelong electronic medical record
which results better-informed healthcare providers and
easier access to VA medical benefits for Soldiers.
MC4 was first deployed for contingency operations in 2003 and has since
fielded more than 21,000 systems to deployed medical units throughout
Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Afghanistan, Germany, Italy, Romania and South
Korea. Additionally, MC4 has trained approximately 23,000 users and
continues to provide 24-7 global support via its help desk, regional
support centers and technical support teams through Europe, Korea and
Southwest Asia.
Since 2003, MC4 has facilitated the capture of nearly three million
electronic health records. In 2007, MC4 expanded the use of
its systems to the U.S. Air Force, completing the largest fielding and
training effort in the programs history. MC4 also expanded
its use to units in South Korea where it established a permanent
training and support site on Camp Casey. Additionally, MC4 vastly
improved its system with the deployment of an improved inpatient
medical recording system, as well as a new medical logistics tool. As a
result, all electronic medical records can be accessed via a central,
worldwide database and medical logisticians can facilitate medical
supply management through the use of MC4. Website: https://www.mc4.army.mil

art, cost effective, standardized and interoperable human resource
solution that supports strategic and tactical management of Soldiers in
a suite of global, networked, interactive, accurate military personnel
systems performing War fighter accountability, strength accounting, and
personnel services. On order, PM AHRS will transition selected AHRS
functions to the Defense Integrated Military Human Resource System
(DIMHRS), while continuing to develop and operate those components
which complement DIMHRS. AHRS is a system of systems
providing the tools to locate, manage, and serve the Soldier
anywhere in the world. Products and Services: Deployed Theater Accountability Software (DTAS)
DTAS, the worlds first enterprise-wide Secret Internet
Protocol Router Network (SIPRNet) personnel accountability system,
provides near real-time data on individual personnel status, unit
strengths and deployment history. DTAS is both a client-server
application to allow tactical units uninterrupted access to their data
while still updating higher HQ when communications are available, and a
Web-Enabled application for Theater/Command level personnel to manage
units and analyze the data. This visibility is vital in
determining the war fighting capability of the Army and subordinate
commands within a specific theater. DTAS can provide
commanders and personnel specialists with near real-time accountability
of deployed military personnel, civilians, contractors and foreign
nationals in-Theater by name, SSN, unit, location and day. It
consists of an enterprise server suite, theater server suite(s), and
the unit mobile system(s). It can
operate under battlefield communications environments
with limited bandwidth, intermittent connectivity or within operational
constraints while disconnected. The DTAS
Mobile User System hierarchy extends theater
level command down to tactical battalions and separate companies, using
each units existing computer infrastructure linked to
theater. Each mobile system reports on unit personnel and synchronizes
with the theater server suite. The theater suite provides
deployment history data to the enterprise suite. The
enterprise suite interfaces with numerous personnel management systems
to provide DTAS with descriptive personnel data, eliminating the need
for duplicative data entry.
All Soldiers and Marines, plus select DoD civilians, contractors and
navy units in the Central Command (CENTCOM) Area of Operations are
being tracked in DTAS. DTAS is expanding into the continental
United States. U.S. Army Human Resource Command, Soldier
Record Data Center-Alexandria (SRDC-A) acts as the primary customer and
