- In a novel experiment, the Pentagon is going to pay civilian ambulances for lifesaving blood
The Pentagon will reimburse civilian ambulances for administering blood to trauma patients before hospital arrival through a TRICARE demonstration project. The initiative aims to address the lack of blood in ambulances and encourage insurers to adopt similar payment models, inspired by military trauma care practices from conflicts in the Middle East.
