When appropriate care cannot be provided in a U.S. MTF, Navy and Marine Corps members may be hospitalized at medical facilities authorized under the auspices of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA), Partnership for Peace SOFA, or a country with which the United States has a recognized Reciprocal Health Care Agreement. If none of the alternatives listed above is available or is medically feasible, the member may be hospitalized in a civilian medical facility. When a servicemember is hospitalized in a foreign civilian medical facility, arrangements should be made to transport the member to the appropriate CONUS or OCONUS US MTF when medically feasible.
