Which individual is also a focal point that Theater Patient Movement Requirements Centers (TPMRC) personnel can contact for questions concerning a patient's movement?

• A. Admissions and dispositions technician
• B. Unit inpatient records technician
• C. Patient movement technician
• D. TRAC2ES technician

Answer: (C)

The main idea here is identifying who coordinates and answers questions about moving a patient within the Theater Patient Movement Requirements Centers. The patient movement technician is the person specifically responsible for planning, coordinating, and communicating all aspects of a patient’s movement, including timing, transport assets, and coordination with medical teams and receiving facilities. Because TPMRC’s job is to ensure patient movement is organized and resources are aligned across the theater, this role naturally serves as the primary point of contact for any movement-related questions.

Other roles have important functions, but they don’t serve as the central contact for movement questions. The admissions and dispositions technician handles intake and disposition decisions, not the transport coordination itself. The unit inpatient records technician manages the patient’s medical records, which is essential but not about arranging or clarifying movement. The TRAC2ES technician supports the movement system and its data/tracking tools, but the focal point for questions about actual movement logistics remains the patient movement technician, who directly coordinates and communicates the movement plan.
