Bill overview
This bill, the Military Families Mental Health Services Act, aims to improve access to mental healthcare for military families. It allows the Department of Defense to waive cost-sharing fees for the first three outpatient mental health visits per year for certain family members enrolled in TRICARE Select and TRICARE Prime. Specifically, active-duty family members, including spouses and children under 21, and children under 26 without employer-sponsored healthcare, are eligible for this coverage waiver. The bill modifies existing TRICARE program regulations to implement these changes.
