Payment for non-naval (civilian) medical and dental care is made in accordance with which instruction?

• A. NAVMEDCOMINST 6320.1
• B. NAVMEDCOMINST 6320.2
• C. NAVMEDINSTR 6320.1
• D. NAVMEDCOMINST 6320.3

Answer: (A)

The concept here is identifying which Navy Medicine instruction specifically governs how civilian (non-naval) medical and dental care is paid for. Payment to civilian providers is addressed by an instruction that sets the policy and procedures for reimbursing or paying for non-military health services. The correct reference is NAVMEDCOMINST 6320.1, because it directly covers payments for non-navy medical and dental care, including who is eligible, what documentation is needed, and how claims are processed. The other options either point to a differently titled or numbered instruction or spell-handling a nonstandard designation, and they don’t address civilian care payments in the same way. So the instruction that governs these payments is NAVMEDCOMINST 6320.1.
