The most recent appropriations for the Department of War expired at 11:59 p.m. EST on September 30, 2025. Military personnel will continue in a normal duty status without pay until such time as a continuing resolution or appropriations are passed by Congress and signed into law. Civilian personnel not engaged in excepted activities will be placed in a non-work, non-pay status.

If you have a scheduled appointment or other business at the MTF, please verify with your provider or applicable office within the MTF to ensure there are no changes in schedule. To learn how the lapse in appropriations affects your TRICARE benefit, visit www.tricare.mil/shutdown

About Us

Our services range from clinical pathology such as phlebotomy (blood drawing), chemistry, hematology, microbiology, and anatomic pathology including surgical pathology, cytology, and autopsy. In addition the Department of Pathology is responsible for the oversight, preparation, storage, and administration of blood products. The first totally automated lab in the Department of Defense, Madigan's CORE Lab, was unveiled to staff and guests at a ribbon-cutting ceremony at Madigan Army Medical Center on Aug. 23, 2017.
