This deliberate planning process is how we define our Strategy in Air Force Medicine and measure our progress toward meeting the challenges of a dynamic mission. Our medical Airmen around the globe provide Trusted Care Anywhere while preparing for future challenges. As a system of health services and mission support, we strive for peak readiness and highest reliability in all we do.
Lt. Gen. (Dr.) Mark A. Ediger
U.S. Air Force Surgeon General

What is the AFMS Strategy?

The Air Force Medical Service (AFMS) Strategy supports the United States Air Force mission to fly, flight and win...in air, space and cyberspace.

The AFMS Strategy outlines our updated mission, vision and goals from which all AFMS activities, initiatives, resources and force development must align at every level of the organization.

The AFMS strategy identifies four strategic goals of Readiness, Better Care, Better Health at the Best Value in which our medical service aims to reach. We are confident that in maintaining focus on our strategic goals, we will hit our target of Trusted Care, Anywhere.
