The Europe Regional Medical Command serves U.S. Army Europe, U.S. European Command, U.S. Africa Command, and U.S Central Command Warriors serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.

To positively impact Soldier and Family health and provide a trained, ready and capable medical force, ERMC’s 17 Army Medical Treatment Facilities in Germany, Italy and Belgium, partner with providers at more than 40 Host Nation hospitals.

Our vision is to be the Army’s premier medical team, saving, lives and fostering healthy and resilient people.

Host Nation Preferred Providers at more than 40 local hospitals in Germany, Italy and Belgium do everything they can to make U.S. military personnel and their Families feel at home.

Host Nation Patient Liaisons assist our beneficiaries while they are in a local hospital or on initial outpatient visits. Our goal is to integrate host nation specialized care with our military clinics and help beneficiaries feel comfortable wherever they seek medical care.
