Summary of Bill HR 873
Bill 119 hr 873 aims to make changes to the TRICARE program, which provides healthcare services to military personnel, retirees, and their families. The bill proposes to adjust the rate of pay for care or services provided under TRICARE based on the location where the care or services were given.
Currently, TRICARE pays the same rate for care regardless of where it is provided, which can lead to disparities in payment based on the cost of living in different areas. This bill seeks to address this issue by adjusting the rate of pay to better reflect the cost of providing care in different locations.
By modifying the rate of pay based on location, the bill aims to ensure that healthcare providers are fairly compensated for their services and that beneficiaries receive quality care regardless of where they are located. This change could help improve access to care and ensure that TRICARE remains a sustainable and effective healthcare program for military personnel and their families. Overall, Bill 119 hr 873 seeks to make important changes to the TRICARE program to better meet the needs of beneficiaries and healthcare providers, while also ensuring the program's long-term viability.
