NAME: BAYNE-JONES ARMY COMMUNITY
HOSPITAL.
MOTTO: "WE PROVIDE THE BEST"
Inpatient and
outpatient care is provided to eligible beneficiaries. Most
outpatient care is provided by our Department of Family Practice. The
provider from which a family receives care is determined by the sponsor's unit
of assignment. Active duty personnel are first seen by Troop Medical Clinic
staff. If additional care is required, they will be seen in Family
Practice.
The extent of services and capabilities available fluctuates
with the number of assigned staff members. Specialties currently
available include: family practice, pharmacy, behavioral health,
referral management, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, internal medicine,
general surgery, orthopedic surgery, podiatry, physical and occupational
therapy, dermatology, psychiatry, adult and child psychology, otolaryngology
(EENT), laboratory, opthalmology, optometry, social work,
preventative medicine, occupational medicine, environmental medicine, community
health nursing, clinical dietetics, aviation medicine, and
radiology.
Primary care services at Bayne-Jones Army Community Hospital
are provided in Health Practice Groups based on soldiers' unit assignment.
Priority of care at Bayne-Jones Army Community Hospital continues to be active
duty first, followed by families of active duty, then retirees and their
families.
The Family Member Dental Plan (FMDP) CONCORDIA, offers a
readily available source of comprehensive dental care for family members of
active duty. Information about enrollment, benefits, and local
participating providers is available at the office of the Health Benefits
Advisor, Bayne-Jones Army Community Hospital, phone (337)
531-3974/3908.
Regrettably, significantly reduced staffing and resources
necessitate limiting dental care for retirees and their families to emergency
care only.
