Glocoms Inc. is deepening its involvement in specialized federal healthcare services through a new aerospace medicine engagement supporting the Defense Language Institute-English Language Center (DLIELC) at Joint Base San Antonio, Texas. The contract, outlined in a federal Performance Work Statement, calls for an experienced Aerospace Medicine Physician, also known as a Flight Surgeon, to provide medical expertise, consultation, and program oversight to the Air Education and Training Command (AETC). This role underscores the intersection of aerospace medicine, physical standards, and operational readiness within an Air Force training environment.
Maurence Anguh, Ph.D., brings experienced leadership to Glocoms as the company continues to expand its capabilities in federal professional and healthcare services. The engagement reflects an opportunity for Glocoms to support a highly specialized medical function, where the physician will apply physical standards, manage certification actions, consider waivers, and analyze operational risks associated with Force Development Exception to Policy processes.
The scope of work extends beyond traditional clinical duties. The physician will provide consultation and expert recommendations on the management and oversight of aeromedical programs for AETC's DLIELC. This includes medical evaluations, adjudication of waivers, physical evaluations, and fitness-for-duty determinations. The role also involves advising DLIELC leadership on the Aerospace Medicine Enterprise across 11 AETC bases, covering aerospace, occupational, environmental, preventive medicine, and public health programs. Recommendations will align with Department of Defense, Air Force, Air Force Medical Service, and AETC guidance and standards.
A significant component involves case review and risk assessment for Force Development Exception to Policy board proceedings. The physician will review medical records, coordinate with healthcare providers, work with Air Force submission sources, and consult with the Aeromedical Consultation Service at the U.S. Air Force School of Aerospace Medicine. Additionally, the role includes quality control of Flying Class physical waivers through the Aeromedical Information Management Waiver Tracking System, as well as consultation on the Personnel Reliability Assurance Program, Public Health Emergency Officer plans, and Base Operational Medicine Clinic implementation.
The specialized nature of this assignment highlights the need for qualified aerospace medicine expertise. The PWS requires a physician with an M.D. or D.O. degree, relevant aerospace medicine credentials, current Advanced Cardiac Life Support certification, service-specific training, and senior or chief flight surgeon credentials. An active, unrestricted U.S. medical license and recent experience as a credentialed military aerospace medicine specialist are also mandatory. Performance must align with The Joint Commission, Air Force Inspection Agency's Health Services Inspection, and current Air Force Medical Service guidelines.
For Anguh, this engagement represents another opportunity to apply experienced management and organizational leadership to a specialized federal-services environment. For Glocoms, it reinforces the company's ability to support government organizations with professionals capable of operating within demanding regulatory, operational, and security frameworks. The PWS establishes performance thresholds, with several key services requiring a 99% monthly compliance rate, emphasizing quality, accountability, and continuity.
Security and information protection are integral to the engagement. Contractor personnel must comply with Air Force and Department of Defense security, privacy, and information assurance requirements. The contract also includes a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement to safeguard protected health information. Through this engagement, Glocoms continues to position its capabilities in specialized federal healthcare, leveraging Anguh's leadership to participate in assignments that demand technical expertise, disciplined program support, and an understanding of government healthcare operations.
