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.
During this partial government shutdown, the 10th Medical Group will continue to honor scheduled medical and dental appointments. Our patient appointing service is open and we are still taking requests for appointments. We are doing our best to minimize impact on our beneficiaries and their health care. The clinic’s Operating Room, Primary Care and Specialty Care services are fully operational. Ancillary services (pharmacy, laboratory, radiology) also remain operational. As always, safe and high-quality health care remain our priority. Please call (719) 526-CARE (2273) to schedule or cancel appointments.
