Traumatic Brain Injury. A traumatically acquired insult to the brain that may cause physical, intellectual, emotional, social, and vocational changes. A closed head injury may be caused by a rapid acceleration/ deceleration, as in a motor vehicle accident. An open head injury is visible insult and may be the result of an accident, gun shot wound, or other physical injuries. Immediate effects are loss of consciousness, loss of memory, or change in vision, strength, coordination, or sensory function. Anatomical abnormalities may be present, such as cerebral hemorrhage or skull fracture. Long term effects may include physical, cognitive, and psycho-social-behavioral- emotional impairments.

This MOA includes individuals sustaining a TBI and damage to the central nervous system resulting from anoxic/hypoxic episodes, related to trauma or exposure to chemical or environmental toxins that result in brain damage. This MOA does not include brain injuries/insult related to acute/chronic illnesses (i.e., cerebrovascular accident, aneurysm, hypertension, tumors, diabetes, etc.). Patients with other acquired brain injuries due to acute/chronic disease or infectious processes are not covered under this MOA but are eligible for care in these centers under TRICARE network agreements.
