WHAT ARE THE NEW FINDINGS?: The hospitalization rate among U.S. active component service members in 2023 at both military and non-military medical facilities was 48.8 per 1,000 person-years, approximately 9% lower than the 2022 rate. As in prior years, over half (56.7%) of hospitalizations for active component members were associated with primary diagnoses in 2 categories: mental health disorders and pregnancy conditions. In 2023 COVID-19 accounted for less than 0.1% of total active component hospitalizations, a greater than 85% decline from 0.4% in 2022, and a nearly 96% decline from 1.5% in 2021.
WHAT IS THE IMPACT ON READINESS AND FORCE HEALTH PROTECTION?: As in prior years, mental health disorders, including substance abuse disorders, were associated with the longest median hospital stay, 6 days; 5% of hospitalizations for mental health disorders had durations greater than 30 days. Prolonged hospitalizations, after care, and early attrition due to these common disorders can diminish not merely individual but unit operational readiness.
新发现是什么？：2023 年，美国现役军人在军事和非军事医疗机构的住院率为每千人 48.8 人年，比 2022 年下降约 9%。与往年一样，超过一半（56.7%）的现役军人住院是由于以下两个主要诊断类别：心理健康障碍和妊娠情况。2023 年，COVID-19 占现役军人总住院人数的比例不到 0.1%，比 2022 年的 0.4%下降了 85%以上，比 2021 年的 1.5%下降了近 96%。
这对战备和部队健康保护有何影响？：与往年一样，心理健康障碍，包括物质使用障碍，与最长的中位数住院时间相关，为 6 天；5%的心理健康障碍住院时间超过 30 天。由于这些常见疾病而导致的延长住院时间、后续护理和早期减员，不仅会降低个人的战备能力，还会降低单位的战备能力。
