註釋

Faced with budgetary constraints, the U.S. Army must decide how to best invest for readiness. It cannot afford to modernize all units with current medical equipment and sustain all units with consumable medical items at all times. To help the Army consider how best to invest in medical materiel equipping, the U.S. Army Medical Materiel Agency (USAMMA) asked RAND Arroyo Center to survey medical materiel owned by the Army, procurement and fielding costs for it, alternative supply options, and the effect that alternative options would have on capabilities and risk. This report summarizes this requested analysis. Specifically, this report describes the current Army medical materiel strategy, equipping costs, readiness levels, and recommendations for optimizing the Army medical materiel strategy. The purpose of the project was to update the current Army Medical Department equipping strategy to optimize medical readiness by most effectively equipping the operational medical force in support of global contingency missions in a limited resource environment. Ensuring that more units have medical equipment to deploy more rapidly would require more funds from the Army or a shift in the way that available funds are applied.
