the other systems. This reduces inaccuracies from human error and further automates the
workload reporting process.
(3) After validation by the Services, monthly MTF EAS III extracts are loaded
into the Medical Expense Query System, version 3 (MEQSIII), and subsequently, into the
Medical Expense and Performance Reporting System-Central (MEPRS-Central), which
serves as DoD's official source for reporting of expense, manpower, and performance
information for MTFs. MEPRS is a major reporting system that supports evaluation of
performance and allocation of resources for current and projected years.
