Lt. Gen. (Dr.) Mark A. Ediger is the Surgeon General of the Air Force. In this capacity, he has authority to commit resources worldwide for the Air Force Medical Service, to make decisions affecting the delivery of medical services, and to develop plans, programs, and procedures to support worldwide medical service missions. He exercises direction, guidance and technical management of a $5.9 billion, 44,000-person integrated health care delivery system serving 2.6 million beneficiaries at 75 military treatment facilities worldwide. We asked him to reflect on his time as Airforce Surgeon General and to share his thoughts on the military’s global health engagement, including during the Ebola outbreak in West Africa.
Hosted by Steve Morrison. Produced by Cathryn Streifel. Edited by Ribka Gemilangsari.
