AI Summary
This bill, the "Healthcare for Our Troops Act", aims to eliminate certain health care charges for members of the Selected Reserve who are eligible for TRICARE Reserve Select. Specifically, it amends Title 10 of the United States Code to provide TRICARE Reserve Select coverage with no premiums for individual coverage, while members of the immediate family will pay a premium for family coverage. The bill also eliminates any cost-sharing requirements for in-network health care services under TRICARE Reserve Select individual coverage, and aligns the cost-sharing for family coverage with the active-duty family member category. Additionally, the bill adjusts the eligibility for TRICARE Retired Reserve and requires the Secretary of Defense to develop forms for civilian health care providers to capture information related to medical readiness, deployment fitness, and other relevant details for Selected Reserve members.
