Health Services Assignment Assistance Program (HSAAP)


The HSPAC Recruitment and Retention (R&R) Subcommittee is excited to announce recent enhancements to the Health Services Assignment Assistance Program (HSAAP). The original program (HSAPP) was designed to assist applicants through the commissioning process and find appropriate employment opportunities within various agencies. The new HSAAP expands upon the program to provide these services to active duty Officers. While not a placement service, the program will match HSO officers with a HSAAP Liaison who will assist the officer through the process of securing a new suitable assignment. Changes and enhancement to the HSAAP will take place over the next few months, to better assist HSO Officers. HSAAP will also continue to assist and engage Call to Active Duty (CAD) Officers who have been board approved by DCCPR. Officers interested in participating in the program may email HSAAP@usphs-hso.org. From there, Officers will be paired with a HSAAP Liaison who will provide personalized assistance.
