This study defines the specific communications capabilities of U.S. Navy ships and identifies operational problems and technical barriers prohibiting telemedicine on a wide scale. This information is needed so the transmission of medical data can be managed in conformance with shipboard capabilities and contingencies can be developed for the potential degradation of those capabilities. While communications requirements for telemedicine in the civilian sector continue to be defined and implemented on a limited basis, the Department of Defense (DoD) must also supply similar needs in hostile environments.
