Conference Background and Objective As we wrap up the sixth year of continuous operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, the sustainment of substantial troop levels in asymmetric environments continues to claim our warfighters as combat casualties. Medical advancements in the battlefield golden hour and refinement of the continuum of care have led to the largest number of casualty survivors in modern combat history, and have created entirely new considerations in military medical science. IDGA Exhibitions MHCC aims to deliver a national, large-scale military medical event where healthcare professionals (both military, TRICARE and non-military) can come to learn best practices in their disciplines and the continuum of care. IDGA s Military Healthcare Convention and Conference is geared to provide doctors, nurses, medics, and other medical professionals with responsibilities in medical caregiving, medical operations, medical training, medical logistics, medical IT and medical supplies with a focused, dedicated event to address the latest in the continuum of care and how their piece affects the rest of the care chain. This includes the need for electronic medical health records that are updated through each level of care from the battlefield to the rehabilitation and VA phases this is your chance to come together with the greater military healthcare community and their supporting product and service providers!
