Special Operations Command Medical Sets

Unique operational requirements demand unique expertise. Diogenec medical supply experts have provided assembly and fielding of Special Forces medical sets, kits, and outfits (SKOs) in support of global military and humanitarian relief operations.   When there is no one else to turn to, having the right supplies and equipment in the right place becomes a matter of life and death.  The medics
in the front line depend on Diogenec to assure that quality.

Improving the Delivery of Mental Health Services for VeteransCS   32   P2       

  • describe the imageMeeting the needs of veterans who are homeless, have serious
    mental illness, and suffer co-morbidities such as substance abuse
    and posttraumatic stress disorder is a national policy concern. The
    U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) recently completed a
    strategic transformation plan for improving its mental health services.  Since fall 2008, Mathematica has been working with the VA to provide high quality, comprehensive, and timely assessments of how this plan is working to meet the needs of these veterans.
  • This project includes on-site reviews of 187 programs at 101 facilities nationwide and interviews with up to 1,600 veterans and a similar number of staff.  Each review includes analyses of veterans' medical records, program 
    policies, and documents; program observations; interviews with program leaders; and surveys of staff and veterans.
  • Mathematica has drawn on a network of resources and collaborated with nationally recognized experts at the Ascellon Corporation and
    Diogenec Group to develop the assessment mechanism and to conduct on-site quality reviews.

Domestic Medical Intelligence Course

 CS   33   P2              describe the imagePublic health departments entered the 21st century facing new and evolving threats requiring innovative and flexible competencies.  Incidents of terrorism from domestic and supra-national antagonists, the emergence of novel diseases, and the use of pathogens as a weapon against civilian targets place public health agencies in the position of working directly with law enforcement and across other departmental and jurisdictional lines.  Prospective development of health threat assessments — a form of intelligence used to support advanced planning and tailor prevention, response, and recovery activities—has been increasingly needed;  yet the skill set necessary to develop such assessments has not been part of public health training or professional practice.  Diogenec experts designed, delivered, and evaluated a research study to assess and facilitate this capability in conjunction with the District of Columbia Department of Health.  This comprehensive study involved three best practices:     

  • development and administration of a health threat intelligence assessment course for the sponsoring department of health,
  • application of tools to evaluate the effectiveness of the instruction and the department’s ensuing ability to discern indicators and collectively develop a threat projection, and
  • implementation of a standard operating procedure, which focused the educational effort, provided customization to specific departments of health and threat agents, and detailed the process for implementing this study locally and replicating it nationally.
