Blackanthem Military News FALLS CHURCH, Va.- The Pentagon's top doctor, S. Ward Casscells, MD, assistant secretary of defense for health affairs, hosted a web based live "Webhall" on Valentine Day, Feb 14, 2008-a first for the military health system (MHS). Leaders from the MHS joined Casscells in answering some pointed and challenging questions live on the new MHS website at www.health.mil.
DoD participants included Steve Jones, PhD, principle deputy assistant secretary of defense for health affairs, Ellen Embrey, deputy assistant secretary of defense for force health protection and readiness, Jack Smith, MD, acting assistant secretary of defense and chief medical officer. They were joined by several subject matter experts from the MHS.
Before and during the live program, Service members and their families submitted questions and comments about DoD programs, priorities and efforts covering many broad issues with the main focus on wounded warriors. Participants could either write or text their questions.
Pain management programs, funding of new programs, standardized physical examination processes, care for service members with traumatic brain injury or post traumatic stress disorder and concerns about the medical evaluation process were among many of the questions or concerns posted. Check out the MHS website at http://www.health.mil/WoundedWarriorWebhall.aspx for official DoD responses.
"This was a great start for opening a dialogue with our MHS beneficiaries and I look forward to continuing this type of discussion in the future," said Casscells. "In addition to my regular blog which is available 24/7 for questions and concerns, I plan to host a regular webhall with my senior staff."
Questions not answered during the hour long live webhall will be answered within 24 hours of the event at the web site. Participants and viewers should check back to the website for additional information. See http://www.health.mil/MHSBlog/Article.aspx?ID=189&comments=1 for more information about the webhall.
