TRICARE Fairness for National Guard and Reserve Retirees Act

This bill changes TRICARE eligibility rules for National Guard and Reserve retirees. It directly affects members of the Retired Reserve under age 60 who qualify for non-regular retirement but aren't receiving retired pay due to specific provisions in Title 38 (sections 5304 or 5305). The key change amends eligibility requirements to include these members in TRICARE coverage, removing the previous age barrier for those who would receive retired pay but for the Title 38 provisions. The policy takes effect January 1, 2024, ensuring these retirees gain access to health benefits earlier.
