TRICARE changes, new fees rejected by Senate committee
The Senate Armed Services Committee has rejected the Defense Department’s proposal to overhaul TRICARE, likely giving military families, retirees and their families a reprieve from major changes to their health care coverage for at least another year.
In its draft version of the 2016 defense authorization bill, committee members decided against making sweeping changes to TRICARE, including new fees for most retirees and abolishing the current structure in favor of a consolidated plan that divided programs into managed and network care, and non-network care.
