Stop Copay Overpay Act

HR 8633, the Stop Copay Overpay Act, caps TRICARE copayments for mental or behavioral health outpatient visits at the primary care rate for all TRICARE enrollees (including active duty, retirees, and families), regardless of provider type. It also temporarily freezes copayments for other specialty care services at 2021 levels for one year after enactment. The bill requires the Secretary of Defense to report on the policy’s impact on the military health system within one year, including any potential future copayment increases.
