“…To successfully counter these challenges, the DoD must continue to move forward in its effort to incorporate telemedicine into its prime mission-to keep every service member healthy and on the job, anywhere in the world, to support combat operations, as well as humanitarian, peacekeeping, and disaster relief missions. Telemedicine supports the DoD's goal by electronically bringing the specialist to the primary provider who directly cares for service members in austere, remote, and isolated environments (Floro, Nelson, and Garshnek, 1998). Telemedicine also creates an opportunity to provide rapid, accurate diagnosis and therapeutic recommendations (Garshnek and Burkle, 1998).…”

The general perspective of this chapter is designed to relate the rationale used by the Department of Defense (DoD) for the military to adapt the principles of e-commerce to Telemedicine to meet increasing global crises, and to find ways to more effectively manage manpower and time. A mobile telemedicine package has been developed by the Department of Defense to collect and transmit near-real-time, far-forward medical data and to assess how this Web-based capability enhances medical management of the battlespace. Telemedicine has been successful in resolving uncertain organizational and technological military deficiencies and in improving medical communications and information management. The deployable, mobile teams are the centerpieces of this telemedicine package. These teams have the capability of inserting essential networking and communications capabilities into austere theaters and establishing an immediate means for enhancing health protection, collaborative planning, situational awareness, and strategic decision-making through Web-based Internet applications.
