    AbstractMedical regulating operations and the theater medical rules of eligibility are inextricably linked in the delivery of combat health service support in the Iraq theater of operations.

In an operational environment as vast as Iraq involving host nation civilians, Iraqi military personnel, Iraqi dignitaries, and a host of other potential patients, the complex mission of executing medical regulating operations while adhering to medical rules of eligibility is an extremely dynamic undertaking. The theater MRO is always expecting-but never knows-what to expect in that next call or that next email.
