The Military Health System is comprised of providers at military hospitals and clinics augmented by civilian TRICARE-authorized providers. As the health care delivery arm of the MHS, the Defense Health Agency is crucial to supporting the Department of Defense’s integrated system of readiness and health. DHA manages a global health care network of military and civilian medical professionals and military hospitals and clinics around the world.
