Military health care professionals serve in a variety of settings,
more diverse than is typically found in the civilian environment.
The Military Health System (MHS) is a global, comprehensive,
integrated system that includes combat medical services, peacetime
health care delivery to Service members and eligible beneficiaries,
public health services, medical education and training, and medical
research and development. MHS personnel provide a continuum of
health services from austere operational environments through
remote, fixed military treatment facilities (MTFs), to major
tertiary care medical centers distributed across the United States.
Military health care professionals are also expected to care for
detainees, enemy combatants, nonstate actors, local nationals, and
coalition forces. In addition, U.S. military personnel are often
deployed to assist in humanitarian missions, such as natural
disasters or to provide care to local citizens in combat zones.
Directly applying ethical principles from civilian medical ethics
may not be appropriate in military medicine. The basic discrepancy
between the two settings involves their goals and how these goals
can be achieved. This book examines the ethical guidelines,
practices, and issues for U.S. military medical professionals.
