History
The Naval Medical Institute of the Navy was founded on January 2, 1961, under the name Uboots- und Taucherphysiologisches Institut der Marine (UTPIM) with its seat in the medical area of the Technische Marineschule (TMS I). The agency has had its current name since May 1, 1965.{{Cite web|date=2007-10-01|title=Mitteilteil Beständeübersicht|url=http://www.bundesarchiv.de/bestaende_findmittel/bestaendeuebersicht/body.html?id_main=5734&where=naeheres&what=parent_id&id_bestand=3950&suchbegriff=|access-date=2021-08-03|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071001091536/http://www.bundesarchiv.de/bestaende_findmittel/bestaendeuebersicht/body.html?id_main=5734&where=naeheres&what=parent_id&id_bestand=3950&suchbegriff=|archive-date=2007-10-01}} The office has been located on the site of the former naval hospital since August 1961. With the transformation of the Bundeswehr and the associated restructuring of the naval medical service, the command of the troops was again transferred to the head of the Navy Office.
Since 1 October 2012, it has been subordinate to the Head of the Marine Medical Department and Admiralty Doctor of the Navy in the Navy Command in Rostock.{{Cite web|title=Sanitätsdienst|url=https://www.bundeswehr.de/de/organisation/sanitaetsdienst|access-date=2021-08-03|website=www.bundeswehr.de|language=de}}
