About US

The IT Chartered Advisory Committee was established in 2015 by the Surgeon General and the United States Public Health Service to provide advice and consultation to the Office of the Surgeon General on issues related to Information Technology pertinent to officers in the USPHS. The ICAC voting membership is comprised of a representative of each of the Professional Advisory Committees and two to four representatives from the remaining Chartered Advisory Groups.

We support the IT needs of the Office of the Surgeon General (OSG) and Professional Advisory Committees (PACs)/Chartered Advisory Groups (CAGs) through the Director of Division of Systems Integrations (DSI), OSG.  The IT Chartered Advisory Committee (ICAC) will focus on continued support of the PAC/CAG web sites and other IT technical assistance to benefit USPHS Commissioned Corps (CC).
