Popis: The Military Health System is currently in the midst of a sea change as Military Treatment Facilities transition to Defense Health Agency governance. During this time of transition, the measurement and sustainment of forward deployed caregiver readiness is undergoing appropriate and much needed scrutiny. Recently, the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma assembled an expert panel to examine forward deployed caregiver readiness, identify gaps, and propose potential solutions. A qualitative theme array analysis of the session was performed, and three readiness themes were identified including: 1) defining readiness, 2) measuring readiness, and 3) maintaining and replenishing readiness. This article focuses on the various readiness gaps, solutions and areas of controversy identified. Level of evidence Expert opinion, level V.
