there are suitable services available for family members within
their region and assist the service member in identifying available
services at their next assignment, confirm the availability of medical
and educational support at oversees locations, and identify the
need for assignment within major medical areas. For more information
about EFMP, contact your nearest military facility and ask for the
EFMP coordinator. |
