DEFINITIONS

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008

DL4.1. Ambulatory Nursing Services. Provides a centralized program of nursing
assessment and care for outpatients. (See Ambulatory Nursing Services (DGE sub-account) for
more details.)
DL4.2. Ambulatory Nursing Services Minutes of Service. Minutes of service are
counted from the time the patient arrives in the ambulatory nursing services unit until the patient
leaves the unit. The patient receives care, assessment, pre-operative interview, and processing
while in the unit. Ambulatory nursing services minutes of service shall not include time that the
patient is out of the unit, such as for radiology or laboratory services.
DL4.3. APU Minutes of Service. Calculated as the time elapsed between the patient’s
arrival at the APU and their departure to the ambulatory surgical procedure (known as an APV)
and the time elapsed between the patient’s return from the APV and disposition time. APU
minutes of service shall not include time that the patient is out of the unit for the APV.
DL4.4. Assigned FTE. Personnel on the facility’s manning or staffing document.
DL4.5. Available Time. Those hours worked or expensed in support of the healthcare
and readiness missions regardless of the type of personnel. (See Appendix 3 for procedures for
charging available time.)
DL4.6. Contract Personnel. Those personnel who are employed and paid under a
contract. These individuals are not Federal, non-appropriated fund, or military employees. For
MEPRS purposes, both contract labor hours and expenses shall be recorded to the appropriate
work center.
DL4.7. Cost Center. A logical or physical grouping of one or more similar services for
the purpose of identifying obligations or developing the cost identification for services. Services
are grouped into cost codes to identify expended resources to produce a unit of work and
segregate costs for management to assess efficiency and usage, examine trends, etc.
DL4.8. Cost Finding. A process of determining costs by sample or study rather than by
detailed transaction recording in the cost accounts. Procedures for cost finding are designed to
accomplish an end result that approximates the result that would be obtained if a formal cost
accounting system were in operation. Expense assignment in MEPRS used for determining the
expenses of the final operating expense accounts is not the same as cost finding.
DL4.9. Cost of Supplies Expensed. Total costs of items classified as “Supplies” in the
work center.
DL4.10. Day-To-Day Proficiency Training. The third type of training requirement is the
day-to-day proficiency training conducted to impart knowledge and improve technical skills,
which will increase the efficiency and effectiveness of workers. This would include in-service,
safety, security, and on-the-job training. This type of training is not always performed within the
medical facility. Often short courses are sponsored by the military services and civilian

10

DEFINITIONS

associations that do not qualify as “CE.” Conferences, conventions, and factory-conducted
repair and operator courses fall into this category. The salary expenses of military and civilian
personnel undergoing this type of training, wherever conducted, shall be charged to their primary
work center and distributed as if they had not been engaged in training. Any locally funded
travel, per diem, incidental expenses, and registration fees incurred in support of this training, as
well as any personnel and non-personnel expenses of staff authorizations for conducting and
directing this training, shall be charged to the work center of primary assignment.
DL4.11. Direct Care Paraprofessional. Individuals who are skilled to provide technical
assistance or follow-up to direct patient care (e.g., Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN), Licensed
Vocational Nurses (LVN), medical specialists, X-ray specialists, dental lab specialists, dental
hygienists, and medical technicians). For labor hour collection purposes, these individuals are
coded as Skill Type 4. (See Table C3.T1.)
DL4.12. Direct Care Professional. Individuals, other than clinicians, licensed or certified
to deliver healthcare (e.g., physical and occupational therapists, podiatrists, psychologists, social
workers, physician assistants, and advanced practice nurses who are privileged). Direct care
professionals consult with other healthcare professionals to assess, plan, and implement an
effective treatment program. For labor hour collection purposes, these individuals are coded as
Skill Type 2. (See Table C3.T1.)
DL4.13. Direct Operating Expense. An expense identified specifically with a particular
work center.
DL4.14. Disposition. The removal of a patient from the census of a medical center or
hospital by reason of discharge to duty, to home, transfer to another medical facility, death, or
other termination of inpatient care. The day of discharge is the day on which the medical center
or hospital formally terminates the period of inpatient hospitalization.
DL4.15. Expense Allocation. Also referred to as “stepdown.” The reassignment of
expenses of intermediate operating expense accounts to the final operating expense accounts on
the basis of assignment procedures that measure the amount of services rendered by intermediate
work centers to the other work centers. The expense allocation methodology distributes
expenses by using a rigid hierarchy of intermediate accounts to allocate operating costs to the
final accounts.
DL4.16. EAS. A standard automated data processing capability used by the military
services for the calculations required to produce the MEPRS data.
DL4.17. FCC. A standard cost accounting element that uniformly labels a work/cost
center in the DoD Military Health System (MHS) with a four-digit alphanumeric code. All
workload, expense, and FTE data reported in MEPRS is aligned to an FCC. An FCC shows
aggregated workload, expenses, and FTEs at the functional category (first level), summary
account (second level), and work/cost center (third level). Fourth-level FCCs are assigned for
cost centers or work centers that meet the criteria of a valid work center and as determined

11

and/or standardized by the Service MEPRS Program Office. Only the Military Service
headquarters can determine and approve the use of site-specific fourth-level codes.
DL4.18. Final Operating Expense Account. The final expense accumulation point in the
system. All Inpatient Care (A), Ambulatory Care (B), Dental Care (C), Special Programs (F),
and Readiness (G) accounts are final operating expense accounts.
DL4.19. Free Receipts. See the definition of “non-reimbursables.”
DL4.20. Health and Medical Services. All professional, technical, and related functions
performed by the three military medical departments, such as general and special medical
treatment, dental care including prosthetic laboratory service, nursing care, veterinary service,
medical laboratory service, patient evacuation, preventive medicine (including physical
examinations), nutrition management, education, training, and reporting procedures.
DL4.21. Health Promotion. Any combination of health information, education,
diagnostic screening, and healthcare interventions designed to facilitate behavioral alteration that
will improve or protect health. It includes those activities intended to influence and support
individual lifestyle modification and self-care.
DL4.22. Housekeeping Square Feet. To determine this statistic, the number of square
feet in each department, service, and division of the healthcare facility that are cleaned under
housekeeping services must be determined. Floor area measurements should be taken from the
center of walls to the center of adjoining corridors if a hallway services more than one
department. Stairwells, elevators, and commonly used areas (lobbies) should be charged to the
appropriate housekeeping account. Hallways, waiting rooms, and other areas serving only one
department should be included in that department. The effect of measuring only cleaned space
will allocate the space (commonly used areas) among the departments in the ratio of space
cleaned. When changes in assigned areas have been made during the year as the result of new
construction, departmental relocation, expansion, or curtailment of service or changes in
housekeeping requirements, sufficient data should be maintained to allow for the development of
“weighted” areas for the fractional part of the year.
DL4.23. Indirect Operating Expense. An expense identified with two or more work
centers, but not identified specifically with any particular work center.
DL4.24. Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP). A written document for an infant or
toddler, from birth through 2 years of age, with a disability, and the family of such infant or
toddler, based on a multi-disciplinary assessment of the unique needs of the child and the
concerns and priorities of the family. The IFSP identifies early intervention and other services
appropriate to meet the needs, concerns, and priorities of the child and family.
DL4.25. Intermediate Operating Expense Accounts. An operating expense account that
is further assigned to final operating expense accounts. Ancillary Services (D) and Support
Services (E) accounts are intermediate operating expense accounts.

12

DEFINITIONS

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
DL4.26. Labor and Delivery Suite Minutes of Service. See the definition of “Hours or
Minutes of Service.”
DL4.27. Medical Treatment Facility (MTF). A military facility established for the
purpose of furnishing medical and/or dental care to eligible individuals.
DL4.28. Minor Plant Equipment. An item of plant equipment having a unit value of less
than $1,000, and other plant equipment, regardless of cost, when so designated by the
Government.
DL4.29. Minutes of Service or Treatment. See “Ambulatory Nursing Services Minutes
of Service,” “APU Minutes of Service,” “Post-Anesthesia Care Unit Minutes of Service,” and
“Surgical Suite Minutes of Service.”
DL4.30. Mixed Ward or Clinic. A work center that is composed of more than one
subspecialty account and where an indirect cost pool is usually established to collect appropriate
expenses for subsequent distribution to the appropriate sub-accounts. The expenses collected in
a cost pool will normally be distributed on the basis of each receiving account’s ratio of work
performed (OBDs or visits) to the total work performed in the mixed ward or clinic.
DL4.31. Non-Reimbursables. Sometimes referred to as free receipts. Nonreimbursables are goods, services, or equipment provided to an activity (or MTF) and not
financed from that activity’s operating budget. Free receipts are recorded in the ED accounts
when a base provides logistical services to an MTF free of charge. Non-reimbursables do not
result in an issuance of an SF 1080, “Voucher for Transfer Between Appropriations or Funds,”
or other similar fund transfer document by the providing activity or in a decrease in available
obligation authority of the receiver.
DL4.32. Obligation. Any act that legally binds the Government to make a payment. An
obligation is a legal reservation of funds and is properly recordable only when supported by
documentary evidence.
DL4.33. Other Personnel. Includes volunteers, Red Cross personnel, prisoners, service
club personnel, visiting students, and civilian students, residents, interns, or persons not enrolled
in DoD training programs.
DL4.34. Pounds of Laundry Processed. Includes the weight of linen after being
processed and dried.
DL4.35. Post-Anesthesia Care Unit Minutes of Service. The period of time beginning
when the patient enters the post-anesthesia care unit and ending when the patient leaves the postanesthesia care unit.
DL4.36. Program Element Code (PEC). A code that represents a program that reflects a
force mission or a support function of the Department of Defense and contains the resources
allocated to achieve an objective or plan.

13

DEFINITIONS

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008

DL4.37. Readiness Training. Training that is unique to the medical mission of the
Services because they operate with and in support of combat units. Examples would include
maneuvers, field training, contingency training, local exercises, and exercises conducted by the
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The salary expenses of military and civilian personnel
while away from the MTF, as well as any locally funded travel, per diem, and incidental
expenses shall be charged to the appropriate medical readiness account.
DL4.38. Registered Nurse. All registered nurses (Skill Type 3), except those who are
being used as advanced nurses, such as practitioners, nurse anesthetists, and nurse midwives who
are accounted for in the direct-care professional’s category (Skill Type 2). LPNs and LVNs are
classified as direct-care paraprofessionals (Skill Type 4), not registered nurses. (See Table
C3.T1.)
DL4.39. Reimbursable. A reimbursable transaction occurs when one activity, known as
the “provider,” accomplishes work or provides goods or services to another activity or
individual, known as the “receiver.” In the process of accomplishing this work for the receiver,
the provider generates an account receivable due from the receiving individual or activity and
bills the receiver using Intragovernmental Payment and Collection; a Standard Form (SF) 1080,
“Voucher for Transfers Between Appropriations and or Funds;” or similar billing document.
The transfer of funds on the SF 1080 from the receiver to the provider liquidates the account
receivable.
DL4.40. Reimbursable Indicator. Also referred to as source of funds in MEPRS that
indicates an appropriation classification to show the obligations financed by reimbursements,
direct or resource sharing funds.
DL4.41. Relative Value Unit (RVU). Relative value units are non-monetary, relative
units of measure that indicate the value of healthcare services and relative difference in resources
consumed when providing different procedures and services. RVUs assign relative values or
weights to medical procedures primarily for the purpose of reimbursement of services
performed. They are used as a standardized method of analyzing resources involved in the
provision of services or procedures. (See Medical Group Management Association Guide
(Reference (j))).
DL4.42. Reportable Time. Total available and non-available hours. (See Appendix 3 for
charging reportable time.)
DL4.43. Square Feet. To determine this statistic, the number of square feet in each
department, service, and division of the healthcare facility must be determined either by a
physical measurement of the facility or by a measurement from blueprints. Floor area
measurements should be taken from the center of walls to the center of adjoining corridors if a
hallway services more than one department. Exclude stairwells, elevators, other shafts, and idle
area. Idle areas are those areas closed off or unused for a period of time. Hallways, waiting
rooms, and storage areas serving only one department should be included in that department.
Commonly used areas, such as lobbies, shall be divided equitably among the users of those areas.

14

DEFINITIONS

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
The effect of measuring only usable space will allocate the space (commonly used and idle area)
among the departments in the ratio of space used. When changes in assigned areas have been
made during the year as the result of new construction, departmental relocation, expansion, or
curtailment of service, sufficient data should be maintained to allow for the development of
“weighted” areas for the fractional part of the year.
DL4.44. Standard Element Expense Code (SEEC). Synonymous with object classes,
these are the MEPRS standard financial categories that represent the expenses reported from
obligations for items or services purchased by the Government such as labor, supplies,
equipment, contracted services, and others. Each military service has a unique object code
referred to as Service-Unique Element Expense that maps to a related SEEC to facilitate
comparison among the Services.
DL4.45. Surgical Suite Minutes of Service. The elapsed time of an operation performed
in the surgical suite multiplied by the number of hospital personnel participating in each
operation. Elapsed time is the difference between the starting time and the ending time. Starting
time begins with the start of surgical suite preparation and ending time is when clean-up of the
surgical suite following an episode of surgery is complete. It is meant to include only those
personnel who are directly assigned to the surgical suite. (Surgeons, anesthesiologists, and nurse
anesthetists are excluded from this work center.) It also includes student nurses and trainees
when replacing individuals in the surgical suite team.
DL4.46. Travel Expense Accounting. Travel expenses as used herein include the costs
of transportation of people and authorized excess baggage, per diem, incidental fees such as taxi
fare, automobile rentals, locker fees, tolls, and registration fees.
DL4.47. Visit. Healthcare characterized by the professional examination or evaluation of a
patient and the delivery or prescription of a care regimen.
DL4.48. Weighted Patient Nutrition Procedure. Weighted patient nutrition procedures are
based on weighted values, which reflect the resource intensity of the various procedures rendered
to patients.
DL4.49. Work Center
DL4.49.1. A discrete functional or organizational subdivision of an MTF for which
provision is made to collect and measure its expenses and determine its workload performance.
The minimum work centers for a facility are established by meeting specific criteria and using
the prescribed FCCs as described in Chapter 2 of this Manual. MTFs are not authorized to create
new FCCs for work centers without coordination and approval from the Service MEPRS
Program Office. A work center shall be established when the MEPRS reporting facility requires
the performance of a function that is assigned or authorized by higher medical authority,
manpower (staffing) is assigned, physical space is designated to accomplish the function, and
workload is generated. Generally, the following criteria should be considered for establishing a
work center.

15

DEFINITIONS

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
DL4.49.1.1. Normally operates 16 hours or more each month.
DL4.49.1.2. Has identifiable expenses.
DL4.49.1.3. Is allocated physical space.
DL4.49.1.4. Is allocated or assigned manpower. Such staffing may or
may not be authorized on the facility manning or staffing documents. In the areas of inpatient,
ambulatory, and dental care, this means that the medical or dental specialty or subspecialty is
assigned.
DL4.49.1.5. Has a valid work output.
DL4.49.1.6. Uses a valid workload measure.
DL4.49.1.7. Service provided or expenses incurred are unique when
compared to other established work centers.
DL4.49.1.8. Is compatible with the MTF organizational structure.
DL4.49.1.9. Facilitates the management decision-making process.
DL4.49.2. A work center shall be established and expenses identified and
reported when the aforementioned criteria are established. EXCEPTIONS to the criteria above
are FCCs established to accumulate expenses only, such as depreciation accounts,
reimbursement accounts, base operations accounts, holding or variance accounts, and indirect
cost pools. Work center expenses shall be identified and reported only if they are considered to
be significant by the MTF Commander, even if physical space is allocated and utilized for the
performance of a function.
DL4.50. Working at Home. Work performed at home in support of the MTF mission
that is normally performed in the individual’s assigned work center.
DL4.51. Workload. The amount of work produced in a functional activity or work
center. (See Chapter 2 for the Uniform Chart of Accounts (UCA) and Chapter 3 for accounting
for workload.)

C1. CHAPTER 1
GENERAL INFORMATION

C1.1. INTRODUCTION
C1.1.1. Purpose
C1.1.1.1. The purpose of the MEPRS is to provide a uniform system of
healthcare managerial accounting for the MHS. MEPRS provides detailed uniform performance
indicators, common expense classification by work center/cost center, uniform reporting of
personnel utilization data by work centers, and a labor cost assignment methodology.
C1.1.1.2. The MEPRS methodology provides consistent performance data to
managers responsible for healthcare delivery in support of dual Warfighter Support Operations
and integrated tri-Service healthcare missions.
C1.1.1.3. MEPRS defines a set of functional work centers/cost centers, applies a
uniform performance measurement system, prescribes a cost assignment methodology, and
obtains reported information in standard formats for fixed MTF and dental treatment facilities
(DTF). Resource and performance data must reflect the resources used in delivering healthcare
services and also comply with MEPRS functional work/cost center requirements. Data must be
complete, accurate, and timely, and in sufficient detail to permit review and audit by
management.
C1.1.2. Responsibilities. The responsibilities for policy guidance and MEPRS
implementation, issuance, and maintenance are as follows.
C1.1.2.1. The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs (ASD(HA)),
under the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness (USD(P&R)), shall exercise
management, direction, and maintenance of the MEPRS program within the Department of
Defense.
C1.1.2.1.1. The TRICARE Management Activity (TMA) MEPRS
Program Office, under the authority, direction, and control of the ASD(HA), shall be responsible
for overall program management, oversight, and administration of the MEPRS Management
Improvement Group (MMIG).
C1.1.2.1.2. The MMIG, as the functional proponent for the DoD MEPRS
program, shall be responsible for the development, implementation, management, and integration
of MEPRS policies, procedures, business practices, and system requirements. The MMIG
operates under the auspices of the TMA Resource Management Steering Committee (RMSC)
and, through the MMIG charter, is empowered to jointly resolve tri-Service issues in favor of a
single, standard, and binding MHS solution.

CHAPTER 1

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
C1.1.2.2. The Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) (USD(C)) shall provide
policy guidance and instruction to DoD healthcare and readiness resources within the
Department of Defense.
C1.1.2.3. The USD(P&R) shall provide general policy guidance and instruction
on manpower management to DoD Components.
C1.1.2.4. The DoD Components shall implement the provisions of this Manual
and collect and report uniform, comparable data.
C1.1.2.5. All principals mentioned in this section shall coordinate their efforts to
ensure that MEPRS is consistently implemented and integrated into existing management
systems.
C1.1.3. Objectives
C1.1.3.1. MEPRS provides the Department of Defense with a uniform system for
managerial cost accounting and reporting on the fixed military healthcare DHP funded programs
and supporting activities, such as non-reimbursables (free receipts) and external resource
sharing.
C1.1.3.2. The MEPRS Manual provides guidance to ensure consistent
identification, recording, and reporting of expense and performance data from fixed MTFs.
MEPRS information assists in measuring productivity and management effectiveness,
developing performance standards, developing program estimating equations, and business
planning opportunities.
C1.1.3.3. In accordance with Managerial Cost Accounting Concepts and
Standards for the Federal Government Statement of Federal Financial Accounting Standards
Number 4, MEPRS supports MTFs and all entities within the MHS in approximating and
reporting full cost of resources used to produce output by responsibility segments/functional cost
centers. The full cost data derived from MEPRS may be used by the department in developing
the actuarial liability estimates for the Military Retirement Health Benefits Liability in the Other
Defense Organization General Funds. This information is included in the department’s annual
agency-wide audited financial statements.
C1.1.3.4. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-123 (Reference (k))
defines management controls as the organization, policies, and procedures used to reasonably
ensure that programs achieve their intended results, resources are used consistent with the
mission of the agency, and reliable and timely information is obtained, maintained, reported, and
used for decision-making (Reference (k)). The systems that provide data for MEPRS should
meet the standards for this regulation through the implementation of detailed guidance,
compliance metrics, and reconciliation procedures.
C1.1.4. Interpretations and Recommendations. Requests for information, clarification or
interpretation, or changes to this Manual shall be submitted to the Office of the Assistant

21

CHAPTER 1

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs (OASD(HA)) TMA. Deviations from this Manual must
be submitted for approval to OASD(HA) TMA after coordinating the overall effect of the
deviation with the Military Services. Other issues, such as proposed modifications to this
Manual, should be submitted in accordance with Chapter 4.
C1.1.5. Information Requirements. Data transmitted from the DoD MEPRS to the EAS
IV Repository described in Chapter 3, are exempt from licensing in accordance with paragraph
C4.4.6. of DoD 8910.1-M (Reference (l)).
C1.1.6. Standardization Compliance. In accordance with DoD Directive 8320.2
(Reference (m)), EAS IV adheres to MHS Functional Area Model-Data (FAM-D) and DoD Data
Element Standardization Procedures which are published in a federated DoD metadata registry.
OASD(HA) TMA is responsible for ensuring that MEPRS data elements comply with DoD
Directives.

assisting and augmenting the attending physicians, dentists, and non-physician privileged
providers in diagnosing and treating human ills. Ancillary Services generally do not (although
under certain circumstances may) have primary responsibility for the management of patients.
Rather, patient services are provided on the orders of cognizant physicians, dentists, Independent
Duty Corpsmen, and non-physician privileged providers. Ancillary Services comprise and apply
various forms of therapy that are frequently administered through intricate techniques and
require competent, expert, and qualified specialists and technical staff.
C2.4.1.2. In accomplishing the mission, the highest professional standards are
maintained. Every effort is made to retain optimal quality of healthcare support. Standards for
the delivery of healthcare are state-of-the-art and conform to requirements set by the generally
accepted standards of hospital operations as practiced in the United States. Proper supervision
and control are exercised over assigned areas of responsibility. The CE and training of
professional and paraprofessional medical personnel are promoted. Participation in staff
conferences and provision of consultant services are ensured. The formulation of clinical
policies and standards is maintained. Collaboration between clinical and administrative services
is promoted to further patient comfort, welfare, speedy recovery, and proper disposition.

costs during the fiscal year in which the investment equipment is expensed and does not collect
expenses for equipment below the dollar level used in the definition of “investment equipment.”
(See the definitions section of this Manual.) Acquisitions below the investment dollar threshold
shall be charged to the receiving accounts as operating expenses. The equipment dollar
threshold is established by the USD(C). The Military Service headquarters MEPRS
representative can provide the current threshold amount. The investment equipment thresholds
that apply as of fiscal year 1999 are $100,000 from fiscal years 1996 to present, $50,000 for
fiscal year 1995, $25,000 for fiscal year 1994, and $15,000 for fiscal year 1993 and before. The

C2.5.8.5. Depreciation Methodology. The methodology reflects the depreciation
expense of investment equipment acquisitions to MTF accounts. Each Military Service shall
ensure that a set of records is established for each fixed MTF (medical or dental) under its
control. Each MTF’s records must show the original dollar value of acquisitions of
modernization and replacement investment equipment for each of the last 5 fiscal years. Each
fiscal year’s acquisitions shall be classified into one of the four categories as follows. (1) All
investment equipment (other than dental, special programs and readiness) in support of Inpatient
Care (A), Ambulatory Care (B), Ancillary Services (D), and Support Services (E); (2) Dental
Care (C); (3) Special Programs (F); and (4) Readiness (G).
C2.5.8.5.1. At the end of each fiscal year, the cost of the investment item
acquisitions by the four categories for that year shall be added to the present category totals and
the totals prior to the last 5 fiscal years, as well as the dollar value of any equipment transferred
out (no longer owned by the MTF) or surveyed due to theft, disappearance, or destruction shall
be subtracted. This subtraction may also pertain to equipment affected by operations that are no
longer performed by the MTF. The new total for each category shall be divided by five for
inclusion in the respective cost assignment methodology as the current fiscal year’s depreciation
expense. To obtain a monthly figure, divide the fiscal year expense by 12. The cost assignment
of inpatient and outpatient depreciation expenses is based on workload generated each month by
the “A” and “B” final MEPRS accounts. (See Table C2T5.) The assignment for dental, special
programs, and medical readiness is based on the dollar value of equipment to the “C,” “F,” and
“G” accounts as described in subparagraphs C2.5.8.8. through C2.5.8.10. MTF shall use the
percentages to distribute depreciation expenses between Inpatient Care (A) and Ambulatory Care
(B) accounts as outlined in Table C2.T5.
C2.5.8.5.2. The following guidelines also apply when calculating
depreciation. Equipment salvage value is zero. Post acquisition investment cost adjustments
shall not be considered. Reciprocal acquisition cost adjustments will be made for transfer of
equipment among MTFs or inpatient closures.

CHAPTER 2

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
Table C2.T6. Inpatient Clinical Nutrition Weighted Procedures
Weighted Patient Nutrition Procedures are based on weighted factors, which reflect the resource intensity
of the various procedures rendered to inpatients under Clinical Nutrition Management (EIC). Different
weights are assigned when the procedure is completed by a dietitian or by an enlisted technician. Specific
examples of medical record documentation that support each type of procedure are available from the
Military Service headquarters MEPRS representative. The following are the basic guidelines.
1. Basic Nutrition Procedure. A medical record entry for a basic nutrition procedure includes references
to services such as basic screening (height, weight, age, percent desirable body weight, percent usual body
weight); diagnosis; initial sample notification of NPO/CL or inadequate intake more than 3 – 5 days; basic
nutrition care follow-up and consultation to assess patient’s progress on current nutrition therapy with basic
recommendation (modification of diet order), brief re-evaluation, or limited assessments; basic discharge
planning (including weekly rounds and simple medical record entries documenting discharge diet); basic
diet-drug interaction counseling for antibiotics and gastrointestinal preparations.
Dietitian Weighted Value = 0.25
Technician Weighted Value = 0.20 (only tasks for which they are trained and authorized)
2. Intermediate Nutrition Procedure. A medical record entry for an intermediate nutrition procedure
includes references to services such as notification of NPO/CL or inadequate intake with recommendation
for oral nutrition support; expanded nutrition screening involving medical record review and items such as
anthropometric measurement, laboratory values of nutritional significance, over-the-counter and
prescription drugs, vitamin and mineral supplements, and hand grip strength; nutrition assessments that
result in establishment of nutrition goals for disease management and prevention for patients at moderate
nutritional risk or receiving intermediate diets; intermediate diet-drug interaction counseling for oral
hypoglycemics, insulin, monoamine oxidase inhibitors, antalapemics, and psychotrophic drugs; follow-up
evaluation for medically stable patients receiving tube feeding and parenteral nutrition; and discharge
summary and coordination with other agencies and specialties (e.g., Meals-On-Wheels, social services, and
instructions on glucometers).
Intermediate diet examples are mechanical soft, mineral-restricted, single-nutrient restriction, no added salt
(4 Gm Sodium (Na)), consistency modifications, gastric-stimulant restriction, and high-fiber.
Dietitian Weighted Value = 0.65
Technician Weighted Value = 0.45 (only tasks for which they are trained and authorized)
3. Complex Nutrition Procedure. A medical record entry documenting complex nutrition procedures
include reference to services such as nutrition assessment evaluation consultation; re-evaluation for highrisk patients with multiple nutrition-related disease states; malnutrition diagnosis or multiple nutrient or
complex nutrient alterations; pediatric nutritional assessments; initial nutritional work-up for tube feeding
and enteral supplement or parenteral nutrition; follow-up for medically unstable patients receiving tube
feeding or parenteral nutrition; calculation of individualized menu patterns and nourishment requirements
for complex diets.
Examples of complex diets are vegetarian, special diets for cancer patients, diabetic, reactive
hypoglycemia, weight-reduction, behavior-modification, prenatal weight control, galactose-restricted,
renal, protein-restricted, gluten-restricted, leucine-restricted, Phenylketonuria, fat-controlled and
cholesterol-restricted, ketogenic, less than 2 Gm Na, combined diets (two or more, e.g., 2 Gm Na and 1800
Cal), mineral-restriction (copper, calcium, phosphorus), vertical-banded gastroplasty, elimination diets,
HIV diets, and calorie-counts diets.
Dietitian Weighted Value = 1.30
Technician Weighted Value = 0.75 (only tasks for which they are trained and authorized)
4. Extensive Nutrition Procedures. Extensive nutrition procedures include highly specialized nutritional
care that requires extensive literature research, in-depth nutritional assessment of numerous clinical and
biomedical findings, multi-disciplinary meetings or rounds (nutrition support team) to discuss patient care
for patients with metabolic complications.
Dietitian Weighted Value = 2.50 (No technician at this level)

CHAPTER 2

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
care and treatment of MTF-enrolled patients when such services are not available at the
MTF/DTF, and the patient has been referred by the MTF/DTF. When services are not available
in the MTF/DTF, enrolled patients may be sent to civilian facilities for specific treatment or
services, provided they remain enrolled to the MTF during the entire period and clinical
management responsibility of these patients’ remains with the MTF/DTF. This includes all
civilian care and ancillary services received by MTF-enrolled patients (active duty and
CHAMPUS eligible) whether the bill is actually paid by the MTF or not. This also includes care
purchased under the auspices of a Federal-sharing agreement and the Emergency and Active
Duty Remote Area Care Program (OCONUS only). This excludes non-MTF referred care (e.g.,
emergency care for CONUS only, elective care) and Resource Sharing Agreement/Support costs.
C2.6.11.3.2. Costs. This sub-account shall be charged with all actual and
free receipt expenses incurred in purchasing materiel and professional and personal services from
civilian sources for the MTF enrollees to include purchased services rendered to MTF inpatients
regardless of enrollment status. Contrary to previous supplemental care instructions, costs will
not be expensed to the requesting work center. This excludes non-MTF referred care (e.g.,
emergency) and TRICARE Prime Remote. Also, note the change to inpatient coverage—nonenrolled members who are inpatients or outpatients in the MTF and require civilian ancillary or
inpatient services will be responsible for deductibles and cost sharing in accordance with
CHAMPUS policy.
C2.6.11.4. Guest Lecturer and Consultant Program: FCB
C2.6.11.4.1. Function. The Guest Lecturer and Consultant Program may
include didactic lectures, bedside teaching, ward rounds, and demonstration of procedures and
techniques to encourage and enhance academic and scientific stimulation, and to monitor
standards of professional practice. The overall program is an integration of essentially two
entities.
C2.6.11.4.1.1. Guest Lecturer and Consultant Program (Civilian).
Persons certified and appointed under this phase of the program are normally diplomats of an
American Specialty Board (for medicine or dentistry), recognized as outstanding specialists in
their respective scientific disciplines (medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, and other
healthcare fields), or recognized as noted scholars who enjoy high professional status in an
accredited medical school or equivalent institution (visiting professor program). Such
consultants assist in the maintenance of high standards of professional practice, further the
educational program of the medical department, and provide liaison with leaders in related
professions. Consultants provide advice on professional subjects and on new developments in
prophylaxis, diagnosis, treatment, and teaching procedures. They also stimulate interest in
professional problems and aid in their investigation, give research and development and
educational and training programs, and encourage participation in programs such as clinical and
pathological conferences, ward rounds, and journal clubs.
C2.6.11.4.1.2. In-Service Consultant and Lecturer Program
(Military). Persons appointed as consultants or lecturers within the purview of this program are
normally senior career specialists and mature clinicians that are board-certified, have broad

158

CHAPTER 2

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
experience in their specialty, and are fully knowledgeable about the organization and
management of their respective medical department. Persons appointed may include, but are not
limited to, medical and dental consultants, nurse consultants, biomedical sciences consultants,
and forensic medicine consultants. This phase of the program may be further divided into three
discrete aspects.
C2.6.11.4.1.2.1. Visits by expert professional military
personnel (e.g., a visiting Chief of Service) in support of medical department research and
development and education and training programs in the same capacity as those functions
enumerated in the Civilian Lecturer and Consultant Program.
C2.6.11.4.1.2.2. Visits by assigned consultants from all
corps of the medical departments who serve as advisors to the Surgeons General and other senior
staff and operational commanders. Program objectives are to advise on major subjects and broad
problems connected with policy and practice in the prevention of diseases, and the care of
patients, health, and environmental activities. Other objectives include evaluation and maximum
utilization of specialized personnel, medical research and development programs, GME, CE
programs, and other important professional matters. The program also aims to provide onsite
observations by experienced professional observers and to aid in the monitoring of the standards
of professional practice in MTFs and activities; to provide consultation, advice, academic
stimulation, and scientific presentation to professional colleagues; and to provide career
assistance and motivational counseling to officers of the medical departments.
C2.6.11.4.1.2.3. Visits by inactive reserve medical
department officers in inactive duty training status (drill) as consultants without pay. Eligible
officers may, with their consent, be ordered on training and support duty orders without pay
status to serve as consultants and to participate in staff conferences, clinical lectures, journal club
meetings, clinical pathology conferences, formal ward rounds as clinical consultants to Chief of
Service or Heads of Departments in unusual cases, and as consultant or lecturer to assist in
educational and training programs.
C2.6.11.4.2. Costs. The Guest Lecturer and Consultant Program shall be
a sub-account that includes all expenses incurred through participating in operating and
maintaining the program. Distinction must be made between the expenses of this program and
those to be charged to the Training and Educational Programs account. The principal point of
distinction is the purpose of the visit. If it is teaching in one of the approved training and
educational programs, then the Training and Educational Programs account shall be charged. If
not, then the charge to this account is appropriate.
C2.6.11.5. Support to Non-Federal External Providers (previously CHAMPUS
Beneficiary Support): FCC
C2.6.11.5.1. Function. The Support to non-Federal External Providers
account is provided to accumulate expenses incurred by a military MTF in providing inpatient
and ambulatory care and ancillary services support to all eligible beneficiaries, regardless of
enrollment status, at the request of civilian providers external to the MTF. Such services would

159

CHAPTER 2

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
include augmentation for patient care support; training opportunities; external partnerships;
emergency services; radiology, pathology, pharmacy, special procedures services, and nuclear
medicine procedures; rehabilitative services visits; and central sterile supply and/or materiel
service issues, provided none of the ambulatory care functions receives credit for a visit as the
result of the patient’s contact with the facility to receive the requested service. Ancillary and
other support to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) providers will be included in FCE,
Support to Other Federal Agencies.
C2.6.11.5.2. Costs. Support to Non-Federal External Providers shall be a

other MTFs. Such services include augmentation for patient care support, regional and area
medical materiel and biomedical equipment repair, pathology (other than that done by Area
Reference Laboratories (FAA)), radiology, and pharmacy. This account will not collect any
expenses generated as the result of visits to the reporting facility’s ambulatory care functions or
generated as the result of any patient who contributes an OBD to the reporting facility’s
workload.
C2.6.11.6.2. Costs. Support to Other Military Medical Activities shall be
a sub-account that includes all expenses incurred in providing regional and area ancillary and
administrative services to other military activities, and for the expenses associated with TDY or
TAD temporary time away from the reporting MTF to provide inpatient and ambulatory care or
services to other MTFs. A fixed MTF receiving “loaned” personnel support will record the
“borrowed” labor in the appropriate work center sub-account.
C2.6.11.7. Support to Other Federal Agencies: FCE
C2.6.11.7.1. Function. Support to Other Federal Agencies includes the
expenses incurred by an MTF in providing inpatient, ambulatory, and dental care support to

C2.6.11.11.1. Function. Healthcare Services Support Not Elsewhere
Classified includes the expenses of those healthcare services support functions that satisfy the
criteria for a work center and are not described in subparagraphs C2.6.11.3. through C2.6.11.9.
C2.6.11.11.2. Costs. Any work center sub-account established hereunder
shall be charged with all expenses incurred in operating and maintaining the function.
C2.6.12. Military-Unique Medical Activities: FD
C2.6.12.1. Function. The Military-Unique Medical Activities summary account
includes all expenses of an MTF incurred because of its military mission. This is not to imply
that certain other Special Programs accounts’ functions would be found in a civilian hospital, but
only that the accounts summarized to this account have little, if anything, to do with patient care
or health services. Therefore, the expenses are necessary to meet “defense needs” or to comply
with governmental systems’ requirements. The accounts summarized are: Base OperationsMedical Installations; Non-patient Food Operations; Decedent Affairs; Initial Outfitting; Urgent
Minor Construction; PCS/ETS Related Functions; Military-Funded Emergency Leave; In-place
Consecutive Overseas Tour Leave; and Military-Unique Medical Activities Not Elsewhere
Classified.

161

CHAPTER 2

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
C2.6.12.2. Costs. The Military Unique Medical Activities shall be a summary
account that includes all expenses incurred in operating and maintaining the functions described
in subparagraphs C2.6.12.4. through C2.6.12.13.
C2.6.12.3. Inactive: FDA
C2.6.12.4. Base Operations – Medical Installations: FDB
C2.6.12.4.1. Function
C2.6.12.4.1.1. The Base Operation – Medical Installations
includes expenses incurred by the MTF in providing services other than health services to
military personnel and other authorized beneficiaries. The provided services may include, but
are not limited to, a portion of the installation supply operations, installation transportation
activities, laundry services, recreation services, operation of utilities, maintenance and repair of
real property, minor construction, other engineering support, standby fire-fighting capability,
installation headquarters administration, installation data processing activities, all of the
unaccompanied personnel housing operations and furnishings, and military family housing
operations and furnishings. These services may be provided for the benefit of both the effective
operation of the MTF and the personnel support facilities located within, and occasionally even
outside, the medical installation.
C2.6.12.4.1.2. The budgeting and expense accounting for these
base operations services is necessarily found in Defense Health Program (DHP) because the
services provided directly support the medical mission. However, to provide comparability
among the MTFs within a Service as well as among those of the other Services, that portion of
the cost of these services that does not contribute to the provision of care of patients or
maintenance of MTF should be excluded from inpatient, ambulatory, and dental accounts. By
using this method of shredding out the costs, an MTF that must rely on an installation
commander to provide these services, whose base operations costs are contained in DoD
appropriations other than the DHP, shall be comparable to a medical installations that must
program all base operations costs in Major Force Program VIII Medical. (See Support Services
accounts (section C2.5.) for an explanation of which base operations costs are considered
appropriate charges to the Inpatient Care (section C2.1.), Ambulatory Care (section C2.2.), and
Dental Care (section C2.3.) accounts. Also see the DoD PECs “Base Operations – CONUS –
Healthcare” and “Base Operations – OCONUS – Healthcare.”)
C2.6.12.4.2. Costs. The Base Operations – Medical Installations shall be
a sub-account that includes all expenses incurred in providing personnel support to activities that
are not directly related to MTF patient care operations.

FDC. This account includes the dining room, cashiers, serving line, and any other area or
expense directly attributed to the Dining Facility – Non-Patient Food Operations in support of
staff and visitors, and is unrelated to Patient care.
C2.6.12.5.2. Costs
C2.6.12.5.2.1. The Dining Facility – Non-Patient Food Operations
shall be a sub-account that includes all expenses of maintaining and operating the Dining Facility
Non-Patient Food Operations in the dining room. This includes the personnel, square footage,
and subsistence that can be directly attributed to the operation of the Dining Facility – NonPatient Food Operations. That portion of the nutrition management account that is directly
attributable to staff and visitors shall be assigned to this account.
C2.6.12.5.2.2. There are two types of meal service: traditional
Meal Service where diners pay a flat rate without regard to the menu items taken and A la carte
Meal Service where diners pay for the only selected food items. Workload comparisons should
not be done between the two types of meal service.
C2.6.12.6. Decedent Affairs: FDD
C2.6.12.6.1. Function. The Decedent Affairs Program (normally
performed under the supervision of the patient affairs officer) prepares official notification in

MEPRS GUIDELINES AND REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

C3.1. PURPOSE
This chapter describes the MEPRS guidelines and reporting requirements.

C3.2. EXPENSE ALLOCATION METHODOLOGY
Stepdown expense assignment is the cost allocation methodology used to determine total
operating costs for each final account. The stepdown ensures that the full cost of providing a
service is appropriately captured and reported. This method of cost assignment uses direct
expenses, direct labor hours, and workload data to allocate indirect costs from intermediary
accounts in determining the final operating cost for a specific work center/cost center. A work
center is a discrete functional or organizational subdivision of an MTF for which provision is
made to collect and measure its expenses and determine its workload performance. (See
“workload” in the definitions section of this Manual.) The total operating cost of the MEPRS
final account or average cost per output should be compared with previous processing periods to
determine trends and validate anomalies. Identified cost variances should be investigated and
documented.
C3.2.1. Labor Hour Reporting Methodology
C3.2.1.1. Accurate and timely collection and processing of labor hour data is
essential to developing and evaluating manpower staffing, analyzing productivity, and making
labor resource decisions at all management levels. In addition, many overhead accounts allocate
expenses based upon available labor hours. Therefore, work center/cost center personnel,
supervisors, and managers must understand and comply with the rules and principles of
collecting and reporting labor-hour data contained in this Manual.
C3.2.1.2. MTF personnel, including military, civilian, contractor, and volunteer, must
ensure their labor hours are distributed to the appropriate work center/cost center. Labor hours
includes both available and non-available time. (See the definitions section of this Manual.)
Non-available hours are reported for assigned military and civilian staff only. Possible sources
of available time are assigned, attached (including students), detailed, borrowed, contracted, and
volunteer personnel.
C3.2.1.3. Personnel categories (officer, enlisted, civilian, contractor, and volunteer) and
skill types shall be used to report available and non-available time. (See Appendix 3 and Tables
C3.T1. and C3.T.2.)
C3.2.1.4. Labor hours shall be reported as FTEs in MEPRS. (See Table C1.T2. and the
definitions section of this Manual.)

CHAPTER 3

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008

C3.2.1.5. The use of cost pools is necessary for an inpatient ward location. (See
the definitions section of this Manual.) Ward locations provide clinical specialty services to
inpatient, APV, and observation patients. The expenses and FTEs are apportioned to final
accounts based on approved allocation factors reported in the CHCS clinical source system. In
addition, cost pools may be used when multiple work/cost centers use shared resources that are
not easily directly attributed to a particular work/cost center. In these cases, allocation factors
are defined as well to apportion resources to the benefiting work/cost centers.
C3.2.1.6. Borrowed and loaned labor hours within one reporting facility in
support of the healthcare mission shall be charged to the benefiting work center/cost center.
C3.2.1.7. Contract personnel labor hours shall be credited to the work center/cost
center for which they provide service. Actual labor hours will be reported.
C3.2.1.8. Reservist labor hours shall be credited to the work center/cost center for
which they provide service. Actual labor hours will be reported.
C3.2.1.9. The following rules apply for determining the number of assigned FTEs
to be charged to each work center sub-account and the distribution of personnel (salary)
expenses.
C3.2.1.9.1. Monthly personnel expenses for military members shall be the
amount prescribed on the USD(C) Web Site (Reference (o)) for the member’s grade and Military
Service.
C3.2.1.9.2. Monthly personnel expenses for civilians shall be the actual
salary provided in the Defense Civilian Personnel System file.
C3.2.1.9.3. Contractor personnel salary expenses are derived from the
financial accounting system.
C3.2.2. EAS. The EAS IV system reports DoD workload expenses and FTEs as defined
in this Manual.
C3.2.3. Purification. Purification is the redistribution of direct expenses and FTEs
associated with a cost pool. Cost pools in MEPRS EAS are purified in alphabetical order as the
first step during allocation. Each cost pool must have an assigned data set referenced on the
Account Subset Definition (ASD), service units (workload), and expenses. The cost pool
expenses and FTEs are distributed based on the common service unit ratio for each account
described on the cost pool data set.
C3.2.4. Expense Allocation. Expense allocation is the redistribution of intermediate
account (ancillary and support services) expenses to final MEPRS accounts (benefiting work
center/cost center) as indirect expenses. Three essential components for the correct allocation of
these expenses are the service units (workload), ASD, and expenses.

184

CHAPTER 3

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008

C3.2.4.1. Service Units. Service units are common measures of the outputs being
produced by the MTFs, e.g., OBDs and admissions.
C3.2.4.1.1. Visit Criteria. The three following criteria must be met before a visit
can be counted.
C3.2.4.1.1.1. There must be interaction between an authorized patient and
a healthcare provider.
C3.2.4.1.1.2. Independent judgment about the patient’s care must be used,
assessment of the patient’s condition must be made, and any one or more of the following must
be accomplished.
C3.2.4.1.1.2.1. Examination.
C3.2.4.1.1.2.2. Diagnosis.
C3.2.4.1.1.2.3. Counseling.
C3.2.4.1.1.2.4. Treatment.
C3.2.4.1.1.3. Documentation must be made in the patient’s authorized
record of medical treatment. Documentation must include at least the date, name of clinic,
reason for visit, assessment of the patient, description of the interaction between the patient and
the healthcare provider, disposition, and signature of the provider of care. Repetitive clinic visits
for prescribed treatment to specialty clinics (e.g., physical therapy and occupational therapy)
shall not require full documentation after the initial visit unless there is a change in the
prescribed treatment. There must be final documentation upon completion of prescribed
treatment. In all instances, a clear and acceptable audit trail must be maintained.
C3.2.4.1.2. Classification. Classification of a visit shall not be dependent upon:
C3.2.4.1.2.1. Professional level of the person providing the service (e.g.,
physician, nurse, physician’s assistant, medical technician or corpsman, or medical specialist).
C3.2.4.1.2.2. Physical location of the patient.
C3.2.4.1.2.3. Technique or methods of providing healthcare service (e.g.,
telephonic or direct patient contact) when the criteria in paragraph C3.2.4.1.1. are met.
C3.2.4.1.3. Types of Visits. The following types of visits are reportable when the
criteria in paragraph C3.2.4.1.1. are met.
C3.2.4.1.3.1. Inpatient Visit. An inpatient visit shall be counted for the
following situations.

185

CHAPTER 3

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008

C3.2.4.1.3.1.1. Each time an inpatient is seen within the admitting
MTF on a consultative basis in an outpatient clinic, or in the physical examination and standards
section for evaluation of profile changes.
C3.2.4.1.3.1.2. Each time contact is made by clinic or specialty
service members (other than the healthcare provider from the treating clinic or specialty service)
with patients on hospital units or wards, when such services are scheduled through the respective
clinic or specialty service, e.g., when a physical therapist is being requested by the attending
healthcare provider to initiate certain therapy regimens to a patient who is in traction and unable
to go to the clinic. Conversely, a routine ward round made by a physical therapist or dietitian
shall not be counted as a visit. (See paragraph C3.2.4.1.3.3. for second opinions requested by
patients. See paragraph C3.2.4.1.4.2. for the handling of all ward and grand rounds.)
C3.2.4.1.3.2. Outpatient Visit. An outpatient visit can be counted for the
following situations.
C3.2.4.1.3.2.1. All visits to a separately organized clinic or
specialty service made by patients who are not currently admitted to the reporting MTF as an
inpatient.
C3.2.4.1.3.2.2. Each time medical advice or consultation is
provided to the patient by telephone if the criteria in paragraph C3.2.4.1.1. are met.
C3.2.4.1.3.2.3. Each time a patient’s treatment or evaluation
results in an admission and is not part of the preadmission or admission process.
C3.2.4.1.3.2.4. Each time all or part of a complete or flight
physical examination, regardless of the type, is performed in a separately organized clinic or
specialty service. Under this rule, a complete physical examination requiring the patient to be
examined or evaluated in four different clinics is reported as a visit in each of the four clinics.
(See paragraph C3.2.4.1.4. for exceptions.)
C3.2.4.1.3.2.5. Each time an examination, evaluation, or treatment
is provided through an MTF-sanctioned healthcare program, in the home, school, work site,
community center, or other location outside of a DoD MTF by a healthcare provider paid from
appropriated funds.
C3.2.4.1.3.2.6. Each time one of the following tasks is performed
when not a part of routine medical care, when the visit is associated with or related to the
treatment of a patient for a specific condition requiring follow-up to a physical examination, and
when the medical record is properly documented in accordance with the criteria of paragraph
C3.2.4.1.1.
C3.2.4.1.3.2.6.1. Therapeutic or desensitization injections.

186

CHAPTER 3

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
C3.2.4.1.3.2.6.2. Cancer detection tests (e.g., PAP smears).
C3.2.4.1.3.2.6.3. Blood pressure measurements.
C3.2.4.1.3.2.6.4. Weight measurements.
C3.2.4.1.3.2.6.5. Prescription renewals (not including refills).
C3.2.4.1.3.3. Multiple Visits (Inpatient or Outpatient)
C3.2.4.1.3.3.1. Multi-Clinic Visits. Multiple visits may be
counted if a patient is provided care in different clinics or is referred from one care provider to
another care provider for consultation and is documented; e.g., a patient seen at a primary care
clinic and two other specialty clinics on the same day can be counted as three visits. A patient
seen in clinic in the morning and again in the afternoon can be reported as two visits as long as
the first visit was complete; i.e., the patient was evaluated, treated, dispositioned, and the visit
was documented properly in the medical record. If the afternoon visit is merely a continuation of
the morning visit, then only one visit can be counted; e.g., a patient seen in the orthopedic clinic
in the morning is sent to radiology for X-rays and then returns to the orthopedic clinic in the
afternoon for continued evaluation or treatment. These rules apply even if the patient is admitted
to an inpatient status immediately following a clinic visit.
C3.2.4.1.3.3.2. Group Visits. Only the primary provider of group
sessions may count one visit per patient if the criteria in paragraph C3.2.4.1.1. are met.
C3.2.4.1.3.3.3. Multi-Provider Visits. When a patient is seen by
more than one healthcare provider in the same clinic for the same episode of care, only one visit
is counted per patient. If the patient requests a second opinion, a visit can be counted provided
the criteria in paragraph C3.2.4.1.1. are met.
C3.2.4.1.3.3.4. Telemedicine Visits
C3.2.4.1.3.3.4.1. Count. If a patient is present in a
provider’s office and another provider is contacted through telemedicine, both providers may
count the visit in their clinic specialty. This is considered a valid medical consultation, and as
such, it requires proper medical documentation by the consulted physician ensuring that the
criteria of a visit are met (paragraph C3.2.4.1.1.).
C3.2.4.1.3.3.4.2. Workload. Workload should not
be counted if the patient is not present during the consult.
C3.2.4.1.3.3.4.3. Teleradiology, Telecardiology,
and Telepathology. FTEs, labor hours, and workload are captured in the appropriate clinical
specialty for the MTF providing the procedure (exam or read) on the patient. The consulted
provider performing the read shall capture his or her FTEs, labor hours in the applicable subaccount (Support to Non-Federal External Providers (FCC), Support to Other Military Medical

187

CHAPTER 3

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
Activities (FCD), or Support to Other Federal Agencies (FCE)) and workload in the applicable
CPT or College of American Pathologists codes.
C3.2.4.1.3.3.4.4. Continuing Medical Education.
Capture data according to current guidelines in the CE (FAL) sub-account (paragraph
C2.6.9.14.).
C3.2.4.1.4. Services Not Reportable as Visits
C3.2.4.1.4.1. Occasion of Service. Without an assessment of the
patient’s condition or the exercise of independent judgment as to the patient’s care, screening
examinations, procedures, or tests are classified as an “occasion of service” because they do not
meet the criteria of paragraph C3.2.4.1.1.
C3.2.4.1.4.2. Ward Rounds and Grand Rounds. Ward rounds and
grand rounds are considered part of the inpatient care regimen and are not counted as inpatient
visits. Visits by an inpatient to an outpatient clinic for the convenience of the provider, and
instead of ward or grand rounds, shall not be counted.
C3.2.4.1.4.3. Group Education and Information Sessions. These
sessions shall not be counted when they do not meet the criteria in paragraph C3.2.4.1.1.
C32.4.1.4.4. Care from Non-Appropriated Fund Providers. Care
rendered by providers paid from non-appropriated funds is not reported as a visit.
C3.2.4.2. ASD. The most important component of the expense allocation process is the
ASD. It is the roadmap for expense allocation and contains a list of FCC accounts, associated
data sets, and assignment sequence numbers. Each FCC account represents a work center/cost
center. (See Table AP1.T1.)
C3.2.4.2.1. Data Sets. Data sets collect outputs used in MEPRS EAS allocation
processing to the final MEPRS accounts.
C3.2.4.2.2. Account Sequence Number (ASN) for Stepdown Allocation. The
ASN (locally assigned at the MTF) is the order in which expenses are allocated. (See Table
C3.T3.) Expense allocation starts with the lowest ASN first. The lowest ASN supports the most
areas in the hospital and the highest supports the fewest. As each account’s expenses are
allocated, the account is closed. In other words, the stepdown expense allocation process will no
longer charge expenses to a closed account. The stepdown methodology does not allow for the
reciprocal nature of services. For instance, although housekeeping and commander support staff
provide services for each other, allocation is only charged from the lower ASN to the higher
ASN section.
C3.2.4.3. Allocation Factors. Allocation factors are used to allocate expenses
from indirect intermediate accounts (e.g., FTEs, OBDs, visits) to final accounts. (See Appendix
1.)

188

CHAPTER 3

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008

C3.2.4.4. Expenses. Expenses for each work center/cost center are either
captured via a financial/personnel source system or entered manually into the EAS IV system.
Common work center expenses could be supplies, equipment, or a salary expense, including free
receipts. (See the definitions section of this Manual.) Expenses that are merged into EAS from
other financial systems should be validated with official reference documentation or with
resource or budget personnel. (See paragraph C.3.3.4.)
C3.2.4.5. Travel Expenses. Locally funded travel expenses shall be reported as
follows.
C3.2.4.5.1. Locally funded travel expenses connected with PCS orders
shall be charged to the PCS/ETS Related Functions (FDG) sub-account under Special Programs
(F).
C3.2.4.5.2. Locally funded travel connected with exercises that are
directed and coordinated by the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff or Military Services shall
be charged to the appropriate Readiness (G) account.
C3.2.4.5.3. Locally funded travel in connection with escorts for
dependents of deceased or missing military members, supervisors of welfare and morale
activities, and appearance before boards and courts martial or as a member of a board or courts
martial (other than as a patient for appearance before medical and physical evaluation boards)
shall be charged to the Military-Unique Medical Activities Not Elsewhere Classified (FDZ) subaccount.
C3.2.4.5.4. Locally funded travel of patients and attendants shall be
charged to the Patient Movement Expenses (FEB) sub-account under Special Programs.
C3.2.4.5.5. Travel of temporarily retired military personnel is not to be
charged to the medical facility; rather, it is a departmental personnel function and funding
responsibility.
C3.2.4.5.6. Locally funded travel of personnel in support of the Guest
Lecturer and Consultant Program shall be charged to that sub-account (FCB) under Special
Programs.
C3.2.4.5.7. Locally funded travel of staff personnel to conferences,
seminars, conventions, meetings, and courses (except those that meet the definition of
“continuing health education”) will be charged to the work center to which the traveler is
assigned.
C3.2.4.5.8. Locally funded travel in connection with a flight surgeon’s
proficiency flying and accident prevention and investigation shall be charged to the appropriate
Medical Readiness account under the Readiness (G) section.

system interfaces, such as the CHCS Miscellaneous Data Report, the Financial Pure Data Report
and the Personnel Pure Data Report.
C3.2.5.11. Ad Hoc Reports. EAS IV permits the user to create unlimited
ad hoc reports via Business Objects.

C3.3. REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
C3.3.1. Overview. The Service Surgeons General of the Army, the Navy, and the Air
Force shall identify their respective MEPRS reporting facilities and ensure compliance with
requirements of this chapter for preparation and submission of DoD MEPRS data by designated
reporting MTFs to OASD(HA) TMA.
C.3.3.2. Reporting Facilities. Each medical center, hospital, and dental center is required
to transmit EAS data on a monthly basis. Clinics that are subordinate organizational entities to a
reporting medical center, hospital, or dental center are not required to submit separate reports
since their workload, labor hours, and expense statistics will be included with the parent
reporting facility’s expense and workload data. Each fixed MTF will report data for their core
child subordinate facilities as well as their external partnership agreements. External partnership
agreement entities will be identified via a DMIS ID and will report specific data in accordance
with OASD(HA) TMA requirements. Each clinic that is not a subordinate entity to a reporting
activity shall separately submit their EAS data monthly. Each Military Service shall submit a
memorandum to the OASD(HA) TMA when a DMIS ID changes or a base closes. Six months
before a base closes, the facility should submit a request through Military Service headquarters
for consideration to terminate MEPRS reporting requirements.
C3.3.3. Frequency. Monthly, automated MEPRS/EAS data files shall be forwarded by
each reporting facility to OASD(HA) TMA within 45 days of the end of the reported month.
When changes to data in EAS affect the data previously reported, the changes (based on Service
headquarters direction) shall be retransmitted to OASD(HA) TMA.
C3.3.4. Report Reconciliation and Data Quality
C3.3.4.1. Workload, financial, and personnel data shall be reconciled prior to
submission of the data in accordance with Service and/or OASD(HA) TMA guidelines. MEPRS
reconciliation shall be auditable to source system records for workload, financial, and personnel
data. Manually entered data (e.g., depreciation) shall be auditable to source system records and
other supporting documents. Information used in the reconciliation of MEPRS data shall be
maintained for 5 years.
C3.3.4.2. The MEPRS reported data shall be reviewed under the guidelines of
DoDI 6040.40 (Reference (p)) to support monthly completion of the MTF Commander’s Data
Quality Statement. Minimum support includes validation of financial and workload

1. These accounts shall be moved between the Depreciation and Command, Management, and
Administration accounts when the services are provided by contract or by an installation support service
(other than one manned by the MTF). The relocated accounts must keep their relative alignment if more
than one account is moved. In those instances when housekeeping is provided by both an in-house work
force and by contract to the same reporting MTF, the account expenses for the housekeeping contract
shall be moved up in the alignment. However, no portion of the contract expense shall be allocated to the
in-house housekeeping account.

C4. CHAPTER 4
ISSUE RESOLUTION PROCESS
C4.1. PURPOSE
The issue resolution process provides a mechanism for organizing, maintaining, and tracking the
outcome of MEPRS, EAS, and associated application issues that cannot be settled at the
individual MTF/DTF levels and/or Service levels. The process includes both an established
issue initiation, control, and monitoring mechanism as well as a defined process to identify,
address, and prioritize System Incident Reports (SIR) and/or SCRs related to MEPRS policy,
business rules, or procedures.
C4.2. POLICY
C4.2.1. The MMIG is the functional proponent for the tri-Service issue resolution
process and responsible for the development, implementation, management, and integration of
MEPRS policies, procedures, business practices, and system requirements.
C4.2.2. MEPRS end-users are encouraged to review these policies, procedures, and
business practices and provide input to support data quality management, continuous process
improvements, business process re-engineering, and change management. Issues associated with
MEPRS should always be resolved at the lowest level within the organization and changes
communicated throughout the Service command and across the MHS.
C4.2.3. Anyone who encounters problems or issues that arise from MEPRS/EAS review,
implementation, or program requirements that cannot be resolved at the MTF/DTF level can
submit an issue through the Service MEPRS Program Managers or the TMA MEPRS Program
Manager using the suggested Issue Paper Resolution Format (Appendix 4) and policy.
C4.3. RESPONSIBILITIES FOR IDENTIFICATION AND RESOLUTION OF ISSUES
C4.3.1. MTF MEPRS Coordinator. The MTF MEPRS Coordinator generally serves as
the initial point of contact for resolving MEPRS issues at the MTF level and in accordance with
Service-level guidelines. If the question has only local implications and can be resolved within
Service-level guidelines, the coordinator must ensure the question and its resolution are
documented in accordance with Service guidance.
C4.3.2. Service Headquarters MEPRS Program Manager. The Service Headquarters
MEPRS Program Manager provides Service-specific guidance on MEPRS policy
implementation, business rules, and Service-level MEPRS issues. This individual receives,
reviews, and submits to TMA all issues requiring resolution above the Service level. This
individual also provides information related to the final resolution of the issue to the MEPRS
Coordinators and/or the issue paper originator.

195

CHAPTER 4

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
C4.3.3. MEPRS Program Office/TMA. The MEPRS Program Office generally serves as
the initial point of contact for MEPRS users not affiliated with an MTF or Service. In
conjunction with the MMIG, the office develops, administers, and maintains the tri-Service issue
resolution process. The MEPRS Program Office coordinates appropriate subject matter expert
(SME) input as needed to resolve issues, obtains tri-Service consensus on the issue(s) in favor of
a single standard and binding MHS resolution, and refers all issues on which tri-Service
agreement cannot be established to the TMA RMSC for final resolution
C4.3.4. MMIG. The MMIG is responsible for the review and resolution of any
differences in favor of a single standard and binding MHS solution. The MMIG serves as the
senior staff-level body responsible for the functional oversight of the MEPRS program. The
MMIG is responsible for the development, implementation, and management of MEPRS
policies, procedures and business practices, and for integrating the collection, processing, and
reporting of standard workload, financial, and labor data in EAS.
C4.4. ISSUE IDENTIFICATION
C4.4.1. Issue. An issue is an important MEPRS question that is in dispute, may have triService implications, and must be resolved in order to facilitate the submission of timely,
accurate, and complete MEPRS/EAS data. An issue is any processing problem or improvement
that impacts data quality or performance reporting whether functional, interpretational, or
system-related. Functional issues include policy changes like the establishment of new FCCs.
Interpretation issues necessitate clarification and application of business rules and requirements
set forth in this Manual or supplemental Service guidance. System-related issues are issues that
involve hardware or software changes to accommodate policy revisions or to correct errors.
C4.4.2. SCRs and SIRs. These types of issues include, but are not limited to, new
requirements, changes to existing requirements, corrections during beta testing, and table
maintenance. The requirements for new functionality or changes/enhancements to existing
functionality are SCRs. An SIR is related to the requirements to fix corrections occurring when
a system output fails to satisfy a previously established system requirement.
C4.5. ISSUE RESOLUTION PROCESS: GENERAL
The issue resolution process is divided into 4 phases as set forth in this chapter. Only issues that
cannot be resolved at the Service level and that have a tri-Service impact should be forwarded to
TMA.
C4.6. PHASE 1 – INITIATION PROCESS
The issue should be submitted in writing using the Issue Paper Resolution Format. Requested
information includes information related to the originator of the issue, the issue title, systems
affected, supporting documentation, and recommended solution.
C4.6.1. Actions and Responsibilities for MEPRS Users Affiliated with an MTF/DTF

196

CHAPTER 4

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
C4.6.1.1. Service-level guidelines shall be followed for the origination and
elevation of MEPRS questions.
C4.6.1.2. Technical system-related issues impacting the processing and
transmission of data should always be submitted to the MHS Help Desk (800-600-9332).
C4.6.1.3. If the question(s) cannot be resolved at the local level or the issue(s)
have Service-level implications, the Service MEPRS Program Manager shall forward a written
statement to TMA detailing the issue, to include examples of the problem and a proposed
solution where applicable. (See Appendix 4.) This issue paper must be coordinated with the
other Service MEPRS Program Managers and should provide supporting objective
documentation to include input for appropriate Service-level SMEs.
C4.6.1.4. Only the Service MEPRS Program Managers shall elevate an issue to
the TMA MEPRS Program Office.
C4.6.1.5. The issue and subsequent analysis should be documented using the
Issue Paper Resolution Format and elevated to the TMA MEPRS Program Office.
C4.6.2. Actions and Responsibilities for MEPRS Users Not Affiliated with an MTF/DTF
or Service
C4.6.2.1. All users should first attempt to resolve the issue through the MHS
Help Desk (800-600-9332).
C4.6.2.2. If the issue cannot be resolved to the satisfaction of the parties
involved, the issue should be documented using at a minimum the Issue Paper Resolution Format
and elevated to the TMA MEPRS Program Office.
C4.6.2.3. Depending on the complexity of the issue, a more detailed issue paper
may be needed to provide sufficient information for review and analysis.

C4.7. PHASE 2 – INITIAL REVIEW AND TRACKING PROCEDURES
Phase 2 activities take place at the TMA MEPRS Program Office and include logging the issue
paper into the issue paper database as well as initial review and analysis of the paper. Review
and analysis of the issue at the TMA/MEPRS Program Office will be accomplished as follows.
C4.7.1. Upon receipt of an issue paper, the MEPRS Program Office will assign an issue
number and enter the information into a tracking database.
C4.7.2. The MEPRS Program Office will conduct an initial review of the issue, validate
the issue as one germane to all Services, request additional clarification and information as may
be needed, and disseminate a complete issue paper packet to all Service MEPRS Program
Managers for review, comment, and appropriate staffing.

197

CHAPTER 4

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
C4.7.3. The issue paper packet will include the Issue Paper Resolution Format document
and any other available pertinent information including a more detailed issue paper and
additional impact summaries.
C4.7.4. The issue paper database will be updated on a bi-weekly basis with the latest
actions and decisions related to the specific issue paper.

C4.8. PHASE 3 – ISSUE COORDINATION AND RESOLUTION
During Phase 3 of the issue resolution process, the issue paper package is distributed to the
Service MEPRS Program Managers for their review and comment. If resolution cannot be
obtained, a meeting is scheduled to discuss the issue and related recommendations. If necessary,
the issue will be referred to higher levels as described in paragraph C.4.9.4. of this Manual.
C4.8.1. Issue paper/SCR meetings will be held to discuss outstanding issues and obtain
consensus.
C4.8.2. The MMIG, which operates under the auspices of the TMA RMSC and through
the MMIG charter, has been empowered to jointly resolve all such differences in favor of a
single standard and binding MHS solution. The MMIG will be briefed on the status and impact
of outstanding issue papers with the goal of achieving resolution of the issues. Outstanding issue
papers are prioritized as: A – Critical Task, B – Important Essential Task, C – Value Added
Task, D – Enhancement Task, and E – Non-Essential Task.
C4.8.3. If the MMIG is unable to reach a resolution on the issue, the issue will be
forwarded to the OASD(HA) Tri-Service RMSC for review and, if possible, resolution.
C4.8.4. Issues not resolved in favor of a single standard and binding tri-Service solution
by the RMSC will be forwarded to the Executive Director of TMA and the Deputy Surgeons
General for their assessment.
C4.8.5. Issues which still cannot be resolved in favor of a single, standard, and binding
solution will then be forwarded to the OASD(HA) and the Surgeons General for resolution.
C4.8.6. Upon final resolution, the issue will be returned to the MMIG for MHS-wide
implementation and oversight.
C4.9. PHASE 4 – FINAL DISPOSITION OF ISSUE AND PRIORITIZATION OF SCRs
Phase 4 includes the activities related to the final disposition of this issue. The Service MEPRS
Program Manager and the issue paper originator are notified of the outcome. When required, the
MEPRS Program Office will coordinate with the EAS Program Office and other automated
information system representatives for preparation of the necessary SCR.
C4.9.1. Upon final resolution, the MEPRS Program Office will inform the Service-Level
Program Manager. (See paragraph C4.3.2).

198

CHAPTER 4

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008

C4.9.2. Necessary changes will be made to this Manual and changes and updates will be
announced on the MEPRS Web-Portal.
C4.9.3. SCRs are prioritized by the MMIG using the same criteria as used in prioritizing
issues: A – Critical Task, B – Important Essential Task, C – Value Added Task, D –
Enhancement Task, and E – Non-Essential Task. Implementation is coordinated with the EAS
Program Office.
C4.9.4. Issues are considered resolved when any of the following conditions are met: the
OASD(HA) TMA and the Services reach consensus and agree to move forward with a
recommended solution, the originator of the issue withdraws the issue, the originating Service
concedes to MMIG consensus to withdraw the issue, or the RMSC directs final resolution.
C4.10. PROCESSING PROCEDURES
If an issue cannot be resolved at the Service level, and the MEPRS representative of the
sponsoring Military Service submits an issue paper to the TMA MEPRS program office, the
following procedures shall be followed.
C4.10.1. Upon receipt of the issue paper, the MEPRS program office shall review,
analyze, and distribute the Issue Paper to the Services for review and comment. (Recommended

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
AP1. APPENDIX 1
STANDARD FCC ACCOUNTS
AP1.1. PURPOSE
This appendix describes the standard FCC accounts. The basic coding framework provides
orientation to the approach employed for all account codes in the UCA. Detailed coding
methodologies and their potential utility to local commands are also discussed, along with some
coding rules and special procedures that facilitate assignment of expenses that cannot be readily
attributed to specific receiving accounts.
AP1.2. THE BASIC CODING APPROACH
AP1.2.1. All activities and associated costs within or relating to an MTF fall into one of
seven functional categories. The functional categories are designated using an alphabetic coding
structure, and all account codes contain one of these letters (A through G) as the first character
(“at the first level”). The functional categories are:
A – Inpatient Care
B – Medical Care
C – Dental Care
D – Ancillary Services
E – Support Services
F – Special Programs
G – Readiness
AP1.2.2. Each functional category contains one or more summary accounts that encompass
general areas within the functional category. The second letter of the account code (“at the
second level”) designates the summary accounts; e.g., the Inpatient Care functional category
(first-level code “A”) contains the following 7 summary accounts.

AP1.2.3. Summary accounts are further refined into work center sub-accounts that collect
the expenses incurred by the operations of the work centers or by programs maintained by the
MTF.
AP1.2.4. The criteria for establishing a work center are defined in paragraph DL4.49.
AP1.2.5. The functional descriptions in Chapter 2 define each sub-account and describe the
actual activities of an MTF. In accordance with the hierarchical structure, the sub-account
designation is in the third position (“at the third level”) as shown in the following example.

AP1.2.6. Fourth-level codes are assigned for site-specific workload assignments determined
by the Military Services. The Department of Defense does not generally prescribe standard
fourth-level codes. The fourth level is provided to enhance the utility and flexibility of the
account structure and is available for local management use.
AP1.3. CATEGORIES OF EXPENSE ACCOUNTS
AP1.3.1. The functional categories summarize all the defined costs incurred in the operation
of a fixed MTF. The system defines 2 of these functional categories as areas that provide
services or support to other accounts for accounting purposes. These 2 categories are
intermediate operating expense accounts, as follows:
D Ancillary Services
E Support Services
AP1.3.2. In the expense assignment process, all intermediate operating expense accounts are
fully distributed to final operating expense accounts. The basis for this distribution is the
allocation factor of each intermediate operating expense account. The number of this factor must
be accumulated for all accounts receiving the benefits of an intermediate operating expense
account. After the costs are fully assigned, the intermediate operating expense accounts contain
zero dollar balances.
AP1.4. SPECIAL CODING METHODOLOGIES AND LOCAL ACCOUNTS
This section describes special MEPRS coding conventions and examples of local applications of
fourth-level codes.

201

APPENDIX 1

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008

AP1.4.1. “Z” Coding Conventions. Occasionally an MTF will have a clinic or activity that
does not fall into a standard FCC account. In such cases, interim, or “Z,” codes may be used at
the third level. Theses codes are designed to allow the system to accommodate new specialties
while new permanent codes are being established. By convention, codes that are “not elsewhere
classified” are identified with a “Z” at the third level. The Military Service headquarters, in
coordination with the TMA MEPRS Program Office, must approve the use of “Z” codes.
Coordination with TMA shall include a brief description of the specialty or service, and the
expected or projected time frame for “Z” code usage.
AP1.4.2. Cost Pools
AP1.4.2.1. In some situations, expenses cannot be assigned to specific accounts
but are known to be incurred by a limited number of work centers. In those cases, a cost pool
may be used. For example, the three specialties in Ward 3E shown below share a supply closet
and the actual use of supplies from the closet cannot be practically determined. A cost pool is set
up for the ward. Those costs that are assignable to individual codes are so assigned. However,
those costs that are assignable to the ward, but not to specialties, flow into the cost pool. After
all costs have been assigned to the ward, the cost pool is distributed among the specialties on a
reasonable basis. In this case, the ratio of OBDs for each specialty compared to the total OBDs
for the ward is used to distribute the cost pool.

SPECIALTY

WARD 3E
ACCOUNT CODE

General Surgery

ABA

Plastic Surgery

ABI

Urology

ABK

AP1.4.2.2. By convention, cost pools are identified by an “X” at the third level
followed by a letter. In the example above, the cost pool for Ward 3E may be identified by
ABXA. Another ward, 4W, primarily a medical ward, may use cost pool AAXA; Ward 4E (also
medical) uses AAXB, and so on. This is the only use of the letter “X” at the third level.
AP1.4.2.3. Workload may not be assigned to cost pools by ancillary services
except for ward and clinic issues by Central Sterile Supply and Pharmacy.
AP1.4.3. Application of Fourth-Level Codes for Remote Facilities. Only the Military
Service headquarters can determine and approve the use of site-specific fourth-level codes. The
use and approval of fourth-level MEPRS codes for remote facilities are dictated and approved by
the respective Service headquarters.
AP1.5. LIST OF STANDARD FCCs

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
AP3. APPENDIX 3
SPECIFIC RULES FOR REPORTING AVAILABLE AND
NON-AVAILABLE TIME/HOURS FOR MEPRS/EAS

AP3.1. PURPOSE
This section provides detailed guidelines for collecting and reporting available and non-available
time/hours for personnel working in support of the Defense Health Program. In the first section,
definitions that pertain to the business rule matrix are provided. These definitions should be
consistent with other MHS documents and guidelines such as the DoD Healthcare Glossary. The
business rules matrix includes the common scenarios or activities that occur at the MTF, the
personnel types to which the rule applies, how the time should be classified and where the time
should be captured.

AP3.2. PROCEDURES
AP3.2.1. Available Time/Hours. Those hours worked or expensed in support of the
healthcare and readiness missions regardless of the type of personnel. Available hours are
reported for all personnel types, assigned and borrowed, to include military, reservists, civilians,
contractors, and volunteers. Available hours are charged to the assigned work center or
benefiting work center(s). Available hours may not be charged to Special Program FCCs that
accumulate expenses/cost only (e.g., FCA, FDA, and FDH).
AP3.2.1.1. The assigned work center is determined based on the facility’s
manpower documents or the assignment made by the commanding officer.
AP3.2.1.2. The benefiting work center is determined based on where the person’s
time contributes to accomplishing the overall operation and function of the work center
regardless of the assigned work center.
AP3.2.1.3. Available time/hours for privileged providers (MEPRS/EAS skill
types 1 and 2) includes clinical work time/hours (direct patient care time) and non-clinical or
administrative work time/hours. (Skill types and suffixes can be found on the MEPRS/EAS IV
occupational code table.)
AP3.2.1.3.1. Clinical work time/hours includes time/hours the provider devotes to
patient care and supporting activities, such as medical records update, preparation for clinical
and surgical procedures, and patient phone contact.
AP3.2.1.3.2. Non-clinical work time/hours includes teaching, research, writing, and
management administration according to Medical Group Management Association guidelines.
For MEPRS/EAS, teaching activities shall be reported in FCCs other than the clinical work
center. (See Table AP3.T1.) Administration is management of the clinic, supervisory activities,

249

APPENDIX 3

DoD 6010.13-M, April 7, 2008
and similar activities. Non-clinical activities that are performed within a practice (specialty)
should be excluded from the clinical work time calculation. (Source: RVUs Applications for
Medical Practice Success, Kathryn P. Glass, 2003.)
AP3.2.2. Non-Available Time/Hours. Time/hours expensed not in direct support of the
healthcare or readiness mission. Non-available hours include authorized leave (annual, sick,
other) and UA (e.g., AWOL). Non-available hours are reported for assigned military and
civilian staff only.
AP3.2.3. Non-Reportable Time/Hours. Those hours not accounted for by an MTF of
assignment because another facility has reporting responsibility or such hours are already
excluded by the use of the work month (168) used by MEPRS/EAS, such as regularly scheduled
days off (e.g., Saturday and Sunday), meal breaks, and other breaks.

AP3.3. GENERAL RULES
AP3.3.1. An individual’s hours may be recorded as either “Available” or “Non-Available”
but not both for the same period of time at one facility. Likewise, the same hours cannot be
recorded as available to different work centers; e.g., if a provider works on a Monday from
0800–1000 in the Cardiology Clinic, but is assigned to the Internal Medicine Clinic, the two
productive hours cannot be reported as both non-available to the Internal Medicine Clinic and
available to the Cardiology Clinic. If an individual works in the clinic from 0730–1630 and is
also listed on the provider call roster for the ER for the same time period, the individual records
only the time spent in the clinic or time spent in the ER as available time—not available time to
both.
AP3.3.2. An individual’s available hours can be reported in as many benefiting FCCs as
applicable for the monthly reporting period.
AP3.3.3. Individuals should not report their time in overhead/administrative FCCs for the
purpose of looking more productive. These salary expenses are spread across multiple FCCs.
Overhead administrative accounts should be used appropriately based on their function
descriptions.
