National Military Civilian Medical Surge Program Act of 2025

# National Military Civilian Medical Surge Program Act of 2025 (HR 6510) **What the Bill Would Do** This bill would establish a National Military Civilian Medical Surge Program designed to prepare the U.S. military and civilian healthcare system to respond to large-scale medical emergencies. The program would create a coordinated system allowing civilian medical professionals (doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers) to be mobilized and integrated with military medical personnel during major disasters, pandemics, or other emergencies requiring surge capacity beyond normal healthcare resources. **Who It Affects and Key Provisions** The bill would impact civilian healthcare workers who could be called upon during emergencies, military medical personnel, and ultimately any Americans who might benefit from expanded medical response capacity during crises.

While specific provisions aren't detailed in the available information, surge programs typically involve planning, training protocols, supply chain coordination, and agreements between civilian and military health systems. **Current Status** As of now, the bill (HR 6510) remains in committee and has not advanced to a full House vote. The bill was introduced by Representative Don Bacon, a Republican from Nebraska's 2nd District.
