Deployable medical systems are standardized modular field hospitals that can be pre-positioned in the event of a contingency, national emergency, or war operations. The Navy maintains 10 pre-positioned, 500-bed fleet hospitals in its deployable medical systems inventory. Eight of the hospitals are pre- positioned throughout the world. The fleet hospitals are containerized and equipped with biomedical devices such as anesthesia apparatus, monitor-recorder electrocardiographs, and visual ultrasonic apparatus. Each fleet hospital requires about 450 containers for storage. The annual budget for maintaining 10 Navy fleet hospitals is about $23 million. The 10 fleet hospitals contain a reported $236 million of material. The Naval Fleet Hospital Program Office was a detachment of the Naval Supply Systems Command until October 1, 1999. On October 1, 1999, the office was transferred to the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery.
