Recent Issuance Commissioned Corps Instruction (CCI) 384.02 (CC23.8.5), “Voluntary Retirement (20 to < 30 years),” dated 28 April 2009 is available at http://dcp.psc.gov/eccis/documents/CCI384_02.pdf
The electronic Commissioned Corps Issuance System (eCCIS) is available at http://dcp.psc.gov/eccis/. Policies coming up for review or are under review and development are listed on the first page of that site. Officers of the Commissioned Corps of the U.S. Public Health Service (Corps) are encouraged to provide their Chief Professional Officers (CPOs), Professional Advisory Committee (PAC) chairs, and/or their Surgeon General’s Policy Advisory Council (SGPAC) representatives with their recommendations for changes to existing policies or proposals for new policies. Policies are posted to the Web site http://dcp.psc.gov/eccis/ when signed by the Assistant Secretary for Health (ASH) or the Secretary. Appointment Standards Being Revised Currently, a Working Integrated Project Team (WIPT) is finalizing review of the general and category specific appointment standards. The WIPT’s recommendations will be forwarded to the Oversight Integrated Project Team (OIPT) for review and comments. Leave Policies to Be Reviewed A WIPT is being convened to address the leave policy of the Corps. The Office of Commissioned Corps Force Management (OCCFM) asked the SGPAC, CPOs, PAC chairs, Commissioned Corps Liaisons, Minority Officers Liaison Council, Junior Officer Advisory Group, and Office of the Surgeon General for nominations of members to serve on this WIPT. OCCFM received 43 nominations for 9 to 12 WIPT positions. OCCFM established the WIPT, and the first meeting is scheduled for mid June. |
