My pleasure. Let me summarize as to the situation with medical personnel (includes doctors, dentists, nurses, therapists etc) in 1984.
1. Active duty: this is obvious however OTL there were significant shortage is wartime critical specialties as the last Berry Plan doctors had pretty much left unless they had decided on a military career (very few).
2. Reserves: again short overall and in critical specialties. Those in the "active reserve" would be called up with their units and/or scooped up to fill holes ASAP. The "standby reserve" folks, not drilling but still on the books, could be called up with some delays in finding them (literally) and then ensuring they were not medically disqualified. They would go to fill holes, may need some retraining
3. Retirees and recently released from active duty: Like the standby reserve, find them, ensure they are not medically disqualified, and plug them in. Probably need some retraining if deployed.
4. "Officers in training": Until an MD has completed at least one year of postgraduate training (internship) they can't be used as doctors and won't be touched (like WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam). Those doctors in PG training, whether in military hospitals or in civilian programs would be called to active service under the following scheme - those who had completed >50% of their PG training would be assigned as specialists in their area, those with <50% PG training would be assigned as general medical officers (GMOs) & all PG training programs in military hospitals except for internships would be suspended. This would also go for folks like dentists or specialist nurses in PG training. The folks in training would generally be people who had taken a scholarship in return for service payback.
5. Draftees: As discussed. Unlike categories 1-4 these would only be males as there was no legal authority to draft females. As an interesting point, while those with previous service and no remaining obligation were exempt from the draft under law, if you served previously as other than a doctor/dentist you could be drafted again as a medical professional.
6. Volunteers: Like with draftees, these folks need to be professionally vetted and then go through the "knife and fork" OCS before assignment at a minimum, so roughly 4+ weeks from recruitment to first duty station. In this category, both males and females in all specialties would be coming in.
In 1984 there were increasing numbers of females in medical and dental practice compared with the 1960s, although still a relatively small percentage and more females in these jobs in the armed forces than before or in scholarship programs. However there were still limitations on what sorts of units they could be assigned to although like in the past field hospitals were open and now some ships. Smaller field medical units and most ships were still off limits for females. The number of males in the nursing profession in 1984 was much smaller than in 2018 and absent the draft other than scholarship students this would require significant volunteerism. This also applies for physical/occupational therapists etc.
Another issue in 1984 was that due to the shortage of American physicians going in the military, there were a significant number of foreign medical graduates who were non-citizens in the military. This could potentially cause problems with deployability, concerns over security issues etc.
On a personal note at this time I was finishing my PG training in orthopaedic surgery (6/84) and was to begin a fellowship in hand/microsurgery (7/84 for a year). I had 5 years previous service as a line officer (Navy) before med school and was in the reserves in a flex drill program for residents. I would have been snapped up in a New York minute and most liely assigned to a field hospital unit of whatever size deployed in support of the Marines due to my medical specialty, and previous experience...
