FROM: Harry E. Fitzwater
Deputy Di=tor for Administration
SUBJECT: Planning Program for FY 1985
I have reviewed and approved your FY 1985 Planning Program. Your
long-range assumption of an increasing number of real and perceived
health problems related to "occupational" exposures is certainly
realistic as we develop a more aware work force. I think your overall
plan is excellent and I look forward to meeting with you quarterly to
review progress and discuss problem areas.

Acting Director of Medical Services

OFFICE OF MEDICAL SERVICES
The Director of Medical Services is responsible for
developing and directing the Agency's medical programs, both in
the United States and overseas. These programs are concerned
with promoting and maintaining the physical and mental fitness
of all Agency employees, and dependents when applicable;
providing medical evaluations and psychological assessments for
job suitability; and providing medical and psychological support
to operational and intelligence production activities.
A. The Office of Medical Services will stabilize in
population and resources. Since this stability will extend to
the resource base of Medical Services, there will be continued
emphasis on cost effectiveness and efficiency.
B. Increased operational requirements will place
additional demands on medical support requiring OMS to plan and
work more closely with Directorate of Operations.
C. Operating environments overseas are and will continue
to become increasingly hostile requiring expanded medical
services overseas, particularly in those third world countries.
D. Within the next few years the Agency will be
confronted with an increasing number of real and perceived
health problems related to "occupational" exposures.
E. Over the next few years OMS will face an explosion of
information resource capabilities unlike any experienced
before. With the tripling of interactive terminals, the
addition of two Alliance systems to serve the Selection
Processing Division and Psychological Services Division, full
graphics capability and personal computers to serve a variety of
purposes, a new work environment will evolve that will impact
significantly on the Agency and every member of OMS from the
Director on down. As users learn the new technology, the
emphasis will shift away from traditional programming support
per se and toward a predominance of consulting and assistance
services. Concurrently it will be imperative that mechanisms be
in place for strictly administering information flow. There
must be constraints on an increasingly skilled and sophisticated
user population to protect data integrity, to control access and
to ensure efficient system use.

F. OMS management will continue to emphasize long-range
and emergency planning.
G. Changes in the economy, as well as new conditions
associated with Agency employment (Social Security
participation), will serve to make an Agency career less
attractive. Therefore, OMS should continue to develop a quality
health service viewed by the employee as an additional benefit
which will assist in his retention as an employee.
A. The overall goal of the Employee Assistance Program is
to be an effective service to the Agency population thereby
assisting in the well-being and performance of the Agency's
employees.
B. Refine existing OMS sponsored Agency courses; refine
existing OMS in-house medical training programs; develop new
programs to support Agency operational activities.
C. Expanded use of computer devices and tools and a
growing user population will necessitate a shift in focus of IMB
support toward consulting and assistance. Concurrently,
controls must be in place to manage information flow in an
increasingly complex environment. The ongoing goal of a
comprehensive computerized medical record is more readily
achievable through today's enhanced technology.
D. Enhance Clinical Activities Division psychiatric
evaluations.
E. It is more efficient, productive, and cost-effective
to prevent Agency employment of unsuitable individuals than to
deal with the difficulties presented once such individuals have
been hired. The effectiveness of the psychiatric selection
process, which has three modalities (Personal Index; PI and
interview; PI, interview, and ARP), will be studied to see if
any of these need altering to enhance the psychiatric selection
process.
