Bill overview
This bill proposes changes to how the Department of Defense pays healthcare providers participating in the TRICARE program. It aims to establish different reimbursement rates based on where the care or services are actually provided, rather than the provider’s headquarters location. Specifically, the bill would create separate rates for inpatient hospitals, on-campus and off-campus outpatient departments, ambulatory surgical centers, and physician offices, ensuring more accurate compensation for providers in various locations. The changes will go into effect on January 1, 2026.
