Requirements for Fiscal Year 1976
Office of Medical Services Communications
REFERENCE : DD/IBM&S 74-0331, dtd 30 Jan 74
Other than the services currently provided to the Office
of Medical Services by the Office of Communications, we have
no additional requirements for FY 76. However we would like
to see, at the earliest possible date, the development of a
capability for:
a. Secure transmission of digitalized data to
and from all stations at which we have medical techni-
cians and/or physicians to permit transmission of
biomedical data signals and other medical information,
including spoken voice. The capability should exist
for direct analysis of this data by computer with the
results being transmitted directly back to the field
station and a drop copy being printed in OMS at Head-
quarters,: For data coming directly to OMS personnel,
the analysis would be accomplished and the results re-
turned utilizing the state of the art communication
methodology at that time.
b. To transmit copies of documents to and from
the same stations outlined in item (a) in a secure
manner and with the- protection of medical confiden-
tiality.
