Battlefield Healthcare Series presents: Pre and Post Deployment Combatant Care



Advancing the Physical and Mental Care of our Armed Services

Welcome back to IDGA’s 13th Battlefield Healthcare event: Pre and Post Deployment Combatant Care. IDGA’s Battlefield Healthcare summits are highly recognized and respected forums where members of the military healthcare community can come together for advanced and focused discussions on up to date clinical treatment techniques, lessons learned from the battlefield, and panel discussions that also allow participants to earn continuing education (CME and CE) credits.

This year IDGA has raised the bar once again to incorporate brand new, dynamic features to the agenda so healthcare providers can walk away with the most effective and innovative methods of treating men and women in uniform.

NEW Sessions and Features Include:

  • Presentation from the Theater of War Productions (A MUST-SEE!)
  • Discussions on next-generation treatments and technologies for combat related trauma: from Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy (VRET) to telemedicine
  • Pre-deployment preparedness for behavioral and physical health
  • Lessons learned from recently deployed service members
  • Continuum of healthcare in the VA and Wounded Warrior Programs
