- Commanders for medical and dental treatment facilities
have been given the authority
to begin elective procedures
that can safely be performed at their facilities.
Any procedure being performed
must be required to maintain deployability
and readiness of active duty service members
including any Reservists or National Guardsmen
activated or issued a delayed effective date
active duty order.
Also, the risk of delaying a procedure
must be determined to outweigh safety
and logistical concerns of performing it.
Medical treatment facilities will continue to use
virtual health capabilities when appropriate
and take into account local health protection conditions
when determining to perform any procedure.
