Purpose.

To update responsibilities for the Educational and Developmental Intervention Services (EDIS) program manager. Navy EDIS programs were monitored once every 3 years by the Medical Inspector General (MED IG). Due to the transition of authority, direction, and control of medical treatment facilities (MTF) to the Defense Health Agency (DHA), the MED IG team ceased inspection of EDIS programs for MTFs in continental United States, locations in October 2019 and for MTFs outside continental United States, location in 2020. Navy Medicine continues to have oversight of the policy for Navy EDIS programs. To comply with reference (a), and to align with Joint Services monitoring practices, monitoring responsibilities for Navy EDIS programs will transfer from the MED IG to the BUMED EDIS program manager.
