TRICARE Reform Begins on Capitol Hill
WASHINGTON — Tricare could be fixed rather than scrapped if the first House hearing Thursday on reforming the military health care system is any indication.
Troop advocacy groups and lawmakers who kicked off the reform effort said they were interested in major reforms in the system of military and private providers that cares for 9.5 million beneficiaries. But they veered away from recommendations earlier this year that Tricare be replaced with an array of private provider plans similar to what federal civilians are offered.
