  ENABLE PROLONGED CARE
  5-124. Contested domains may require formations conducting semi-independent operations to hold injured
  personnel beyond doctrinal evacuation timelines. Medical care provided during those extended periods is
  called prolonged care. Strategies to enable prolonged care include medical force multiplication measures,
  pushing advanced medical capabilities forward, and augmentation of operational medical organizations.
  Medical force multiplication consists of pushing advanced knowledge, skills, and materiel enablers forward
  to enhance medical capacity. Development of medical materiel solutions is also in progress to enable
  prolonged care and enhance enroute care capability. However, significant total medical force structure
  capacity shortfalls for treatment and medical logistics remain. Leveraging medical agreements established
  during competition and interoperability with unified action partners may mitigate some shortfalls. The use of
  tactical combat casualty care allows every Soldier and combat lifesaver to assist medical organizations with
  continued patient treatment while they are conducting prolonged care.
