Bill Summary

A BILL To amend title 10, United States Code, to improve dependent coverage under the TRICARE Young Adult Program.

AI Summary

This bill aims to improve dependent coverage under the TRICARE Young Adult Program, which provides health care coverage for young adult dependents of military service members. Specifically, the bill eliminates the existing separate premium that young adults were previously required to pay for TRICARE coverage and expands eligibility by removing certain restrictive paragraphs from the current law. The bill strikes language that limited who could qualify for the program and removes the requirement for a separate premium payment, effectively making it easier and potentially more affordable for young adult dependents to maintain health care coverage through their military family member's TRICARE plan. By amending sections of title 10 of the United States Code, the legislation seeks to provide more accessible and equitable health care options for military families' young adult dependents. The changes appear designed to reduce barriers to health care access for this specific population and potentially provide more comprehensive coverage without additional financial burden.
