Abstract:
For a variety of reasons, occupational health services at Army Material Command installations became severely strained during the 1980s. The Occupational Health Partnership Program, developed to improve this support, describes control, responsibility, and cost sharing between Army Materiel Command and Army Medical Command. This innovative approach is finding new solutions to challenging problems. The authors describe the history, principles, status, and possible future of the partnership program.
