Project Title: Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Medical Clinic Replacement 29 Palms, California 5. Program Element 6. Category Code 7. Project Number 8. Project Cost ($000) 87717HP 550 72808 27,400 REQUIREMENT: The medical clinic at the Marine Corps Air-Ground Combat Center (MCAGCC) serves the premier Marine installation for combined arms combat training. Replacement of the existing facility is required to implement the Marine medical homeport concept of care and support integration of garrison care into a modern healthcare setting to ensure all Marines on the installation have access to high quality continuity of primary and ensure optimal troop readiness. The replacement clinic will eliminate the current physically obsolete and undersized Building 1552 to deliver a central location for primary care and eliminate use of garrison aide stations in Marine administrative facilities to deliver healthcare. The replacement clinic is further required to deliver behavioral health, physical therapy, and deployment health services in the integrated model of care called for by Marine Medical home. CURRENT SITUATION: The existing undersized medical clinic delivers less than 18% of required clinical spaces and must be augmented by small and inadequate non-medical garrison aide stations. The aide stations are contained within Marine administrative spaces and do not deliver appropriate configuration, medical functionality, sanitation, and equipage which prevents effective and efficient continuity of care for personnel assigned to the installation. The existing clinic cannot operate under Medical Homeport team health care methods due to the complete lack of adequate workspace to deliver healthcare which limits staff efficiency, and effectively reduces patient access to high quality primary care services. The shortfalls are contributors to reduced troop readiness and wellness. IMPACT IF NOT PROVIDED: Failure to deliver a modern active-duty medical clinic will prevent implementation of Marine Corps Medical Homeport and the integration of primary care to a centralized clinical facility capable of delivering world class primary care. The urgent need to integrate behavioral health and physical therapy resources into the clinical setting is not possible without the construction of the added clinical workplaces. Failure to provide added clinical workplaces will force continued utilization of inadequate administrative spaces to deliver primary care and prevent integration of the critical behavioral health and physical therapy services into the overall environment of care available to the Marines. This detrimental situation would negatively impact patient quality of care and potentially impact overall force readiness. JOINT USE CERTIFICATION: The Director, Portfolio Planning Management Office has reviewed this project for joint use potential. Joint use construction is recommended. 12. Supplemental Data: A.
