Mission Statement and Vision
Medical Management Center (MMC) was established to assist the Army in maintaining readiness by ensuring soldiers have the support needed to manage their Medically Not Ready (MNR) status. The MMC's Mission is to facilitate medical management of MNR Soldiers to decrease Soldier recovery time, decrease the length of time Soldiers cannot perform their duties, decrease the timeline for identifying a Soldier’s medical retention determination point, and increase the number of Soldiers who are fully medically ready.
Overview
The Medical Management Center (MMC) was established at Fort Sam Houston in January 2012. MMC identifies medically not ready (MNR) Soldiers, formalizing reporting procedures, identifying barriers to treatment and coordinating the systems of soldier care. By providing care coordination personnel to interact directly with the Soldier, the chain of command, and the Military Treatment Facility, the MMC is working towards reducing the number of MNR Soldiers assigned to Fort Sam Houston. Ultimately, our goal is to return a maximum number of Soldiers back to the fighting force.
Our Nurse Case Manager (NCM) and Care Coordinators (CC) provide the critical connection between command and the medical system for over 9,000 Soldiers assigned to Fort Sam Houston. Using data from MEDPROS, E-profile, ALTHA and CHCS, we identify MNR Soldiers and facilitate care coordination to maximize the Soldier’s recovery. Early identification of Soldiers needing additional support and medical management ensures they receive appropriate and timely treatment to facilitate healing and recovery.
