Congress Removes TRICARE Increases from the 2019 NDAA
The final version of the fiscal 2019 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), released Monday night, no longer includes a plan that would have resulted in unfair fee increases for many retirees and their families enrolled in TRICARE.
This decision, made by leaders of the House and Senate Armed Services Committees, follows a campaign from the Military Officers Association of America and our thousands of our members to get the measure removed, which would have eliminated the grandfathering for beneficiaries enrolled in TRICARE prior to January 1, 2018 with the intent to establish a single co-payment structure for all beneficiaries.
Most military, veterans and retiree organization opposed these TRICARE increase
