Both the Senate and the House
Armed Services Committees have included language in their inputs to the
fiscal 2007 National Defense Authorization Act that would block a Defense
Department scheme to double and triple the costs of Tricare for military
retirees under age 65. The Senate version would prevent increases in
premiums and enrollment fees until Dec. 31, 2007. Each version
wouldrequire a review of the issues by the Government Accountability
Office, and the House's would establish a commission to review the
military health structure. |
