This field manual (FM), "Army Health System Command and Control Organizations," FM 4-02.12, establishes command and control (C2) doctrine for the provision of Army Health System (AHS) support in echelons above brigade (EAB). It discusses all roles of care within the theater. The AHS is the overarching concept of support for providing timely medical support to the tactical commander. This publication is designed for use by medical commanders and their staffs that are involved in the planning and execution of medical operations in the EAB.

This publication is designed for use by medical commanders and their staffs that are involved in the planning and execution of medical operations in the EAB. The AHS is a complex system of interrelated and interdependent systems comprised of ten medical functions. The synchronization of these systems is essential to ensure that all of the capabilities resident in the AHS can be optimally employed to provide a seamless health care continuum from the point of injury or wounding, through the successive roles of essential care within the area of operations (AO) to the continental United States (CONUS)-support base for definitive, rehabilitative, and convalescent care. The medical functions align with medical disciplines and specialty training and the capabilities required to provide state-of-the-art care to Soldiers regardless of where they are physically assigned. These functions include: medical C2, medical treatment (area support), hospitalization, dental services, preventive medicine (PVNTMED) services, combat and operational stress control (COSC), veterinary services, medical evacuation, medical logistics (MEDLOG), and medical laboratory services. The ability of AHS commanders and leaders to coordinate health service support (HSS) and force health protection (FHP) requirements and to synergistically task-organize and augment lower roles with medical specialties and medical materiel, when required, maximizes the utilization of scarce medical resources, enhances patient care capabilities, and ensures the AHS is responsive to the tactical commander's concept of operations.

This publication, “Army Health System,” provides the capstone doctrine for the Army Health System (AHS) in support of the modular force. The Army Health System is the overarching concept of support for providing timely medical support to the tactical commander. It discusses the current medical force structure modernized under the Department of the Army (DA) approved Medical Reengineering Initiative and the Modular Medical Force that is designed to support the brigade combat teams and echelons above brigade units. As the Army's capstone medical doctrine statement, this publication identifies medical functions and procedures that are essential for operations covered in other Army Medical Department (AMEDD) proponent manuals. This publication depicts Army Health System operations from the point of injury, illness, or wounding through successive roles of care within the theater and evacuation to the continental United States (CONUS) support base. It presents a stable body of operational doctrine rooted in actual military experience and serves as a foundation for the development of AMEDD proponent manuals on how the AHS supports the modular force. The AHS is a component of the Department of Defense (DOD) Military Health System. It is responsible for the operational management of the health service support (HSS) and force health protection (FHP) missions for training, predeployment, deployment, and post deployment operations. The AHS includes all mission support services performed, provided, or arranged by the AMEDD to support HSS and FHP mission requirements for the Army and as directed, for joint, intergovernmental agencies, and multinational forces. Although Joint doctrine describes the capabilities of the Military Health System as a taxonomy of care, this description does not adequately address how the AMEDD must organize and equip its forces to successfully accomplish the health care delivery in the noncontiguous operational environment. Therefore, the AHS is in consonance with and supports the concept of the taxonomy of care, but AMEDD support is discussed in terms of capability packages specifically designed to support Army formations. Although the Military Health System is an interrelated system which may share medical services, capabilities, and specialties among the Service components, it is not a joint mission command system. Each Service component develops its medical resources to support its Service-specific mission. This results in the development of different types of organizations with varying levels of capability, mobility, and survivability. Although joint medical resources may have similar nomenclature to describe the unit, they are not usually interchangeable.
This publication, "Army Health System Support to Maneuver Forces, ATP 4-02.3" addresses Army Health System (AHS) support to maneuver forces as we have seen in Field Manuals (FM) 4-02.4, FM 4-02.6, and FM 4-02.21. Army Health System resources (personnel and equipment) are organic to a variety of organizations within the brigade combat teams (BCTs). The numbers of personnel, medical equipment, and unit capabilities for providing organic AHS support also varies depending upon the parent formation/organization. It is essential for AHS planners to understand how AHS resources are arrayed across the battlefield and the capabilities and limitations of the various medical assets that are used across the range of military operations in support of the warfighting functions in the conduct of unified land operations and in pursuit of decisive action in any operational environment (OE). To facilitate this understanding, this publication uses the infantry brigade combat team (IBCT) base table of organization and equipment (TOE) for illustrative purposes only. Variances will exist between what is included in this publication and the actual modified TOEs of deployed units. These variances may be due to updates of areas of concentration (AOCs), military occupational specialties (MOSs), and military grades and modifications made to unit's TOE which result in the unit's modified TOE or updates to the base TOEs reflecting Total Army Analysis findings and judgments. Where significant differences exist in the base TOEs of the BCTs, an explanation of these differences is provided.
Army Techniques Publication (ATP) 4-02.55 provides guidance to the medical commander, medical planner, and command surgeon at all levels of command in planning Army Health System (AHS) support for unified land operations. The AHS is a complex system of interrelated and interdependent systems which provides a continuum of medical treatment from point of injury or wounding through successive roles of medical care to definitive, rehabilitative, and convalescent care in the continental United States (CONUS), as required. Planning is an essential element which facilitates the successful accomplishment of the Army Medical Department (AMEDD) mission. The medical planner, by carefully applying AMEDD doctrine and principles, is able to provide the best possible AHS for all Army operations. The AHS provides support to forces deployed across the full range of military operations with its various operational arrangements. The AHS is a complex system of highly synchronized, interrelated and interdependent systems comprised of ten medical functions. It is a system of systems. The medical functions align with medical disciplines and specialty training with the capabilities required to provide state-of-the-art care to Soldiers regardless of where they are deployed or assigned. The functions include: medical mission command, medical treatment (area support), hospitalization, dental services, preventive medicine services, combat and operational stress control, veterinary services, medical evacuation, medical logistics, and medical laboratory.
