Dental Care for Our Troops Act
This bill creates a new dental benefits plan specifically for members of the Selected Reserve in the Ready Reserve (part-time military service members). It establishes a "no premium plan," meaning these service members will not pay any monthly fees for dental coverage. Additionally, they will pay no copayments for any dental care received under this new plan. The bill directly affects Selected Reserve members by providing them with expanded, cost-free dental benefits through the TRICARE system.
