JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. – The 316th Medical Group hosted a “Flipping the Switch" event to mark its transition to the new health records system, MHS GENESIS, at the Malcolm Grove Medical Center, March 25, 2023.

MHS GENESIS provides a single health record for service members, veterans and dependents. The combining of both inpatient and outpatient records allows a seamless transition for those who move throughout their tenure in the Department of Defense.

“We have come a long way,” said Lt. Gen. Robert Miller, Headquarters U.S. Air Force and U.S. Space Force surgeon general. “We are doing this for the right reasons.”
