Which statement about JPMRC is true?

• A. Notional in Korea; operational for 180 days and then responsibility transfers to TPMRC-A
• B. Located at Scott AFB, Illinois
• C. Assists only in transfers to CONUS
• D. Based at Ramstein AB, Germany

Answer: (A)

JPMRC serves as a temporary, forward-deployed hub that coordinates joint patient movement planning within a theater, with a planned handoff to the regional Theater Patient Movement Requirements Center (TPMRC) for ongoing operations. In the Asia-Pacific scenario, the notional JPMRC operates in Korea for 180 days, after which responsibilities transfer to TPMRC-A. This setup ensures a smooth transition from a temporary, hands-on operating period to a permanent regional center, maintaining continuity in patient movement planning and execution. The other statements don’t fit because JPMRC isn’t located at Scott AFB or Ramstein AB, and its role isn’t limited to transfers to CONUS; it covers theater-wide movement and then hands off to the regional TPMRC.
