马萨诸塞推出「从军医到医疗」试点:首批10名退伍军人军医可在州内医院从事部分给药工作

马萨诸塞州 Healey-Driscoll 政府2026年11月10日宣布,将推进新规,为退伍军人军医在民用医疗机构使用自己的训练和经验开一条通道。消息在州府 Boston 的公共卫生委员会会议上公布,Boston 位于马萨诸塞州萨福克县。州公共卫生部(DPH)和退伍军人服务办公室(EOVS)在会上共同宣布了这项名为「从军医到医疗」(Military to Medicine)的试点。
按提议的规则,试点先在经 DPH 批准的医院里放10个名额,符合条件的退伍军人军医可以从事特定的给药工作。规则不改动更广泛的执业许可和执业范围要求,先以小规模试点的方式推进,之后要走公众评论程序,随州政府的审查流程走完才定案。
试点如果获批落地,将由 EOVS 负责评估,看军医的经验到底怎样转成民用医疗岗位,并帮助人手短缺的医院招人、留人。
退伍军人服务厅长 Eric Goralnick 和公共卫生专员 Robbie Goldstein 是这项倡议的主要推动者。州政府打的算盘很直白:一边是受过严格急救训练、退役后却要从头考证的军医,一边是长期缺人的医院,试点就是要在不放松安全标准的前提下把两边接起来。
这项宣布赶在退伍军人节前一天。州政府同周还宣布了退伍军人就业机会委员会的任命,并公布32家获认证或承诺录用退伍军人的企业名单,都在退伍军人就业这条线上。

Massachusetts Unveils Military to Medicine Pilot: First 10 Veteran Medics Could Perform Some Medication Administration in State Hospitals
The Healey-Driscoll Administration announced on November 10, 2026, plans to advance new regulations creating a pathway for military medics to use their training and experience in civilian health care settings in Massachusetts. The Military to Medicine pilot was announced by the Department of Public Health (DPH) and the Executive Office of Veterans Services (EOVS) at the Public Health Council meeting in Boston, the state capital in Suffolk County, Massachusetts.
Under the proposed regulations, a pilot would allow 10 eligible veterans who previously served as military medics to perform certain medication administration activities at DPH-approved hospitals. The rules would not make broader changes to professional licensing or scope-of-practice requirements, and they will be put forward for public comment as part of the state's review process.
If approved and implemented, the programme will be evaluated by EOVS to assess how military medical experience translates into civilian health care opportunities and to help hospitals recruit and retain skilled workers.
Veterans Services Secretary Eric Goralnick and Public Health Commissioner Robbie Goldstein are the initiative's lead officials. The state's logic is direct: medics with rigorous emergency training often have to restart credentialing from zero after service, while hospitals report persistent difficulty finding qualified staff, and the pilot tests whether the two sides can be connected without lowering safety standards.
The announcement came the day before Veterans Day. The same week, the administration also announced appointments to the Veterans Employment Opportunities Commission and highlighted 32 Massachusetts businesses certified or pledged as Veteran Ready Businesses.
