Abstract

The United States (US) military health system (MHS) is a unique healthcare system which provides universal access to healthcare for 9.5 million beneficiaries across the US and internationally, with different delivery models for direct vs private sector care. MHS beneficiaries mirror the demographics of the broader US population, yet occupational exposures can influence the rates of certain health conditions among beneficiaries. Further, the implications of genetic information for this population may differ from those of their civilian counterparts.
