Servicemember Healthcare Freedom Act of 2025
This bill modifies eligibility rules for military reservists and National Guard members who work as civilian federal employees. It removes a current restriction that prevents these service members from enrolling in TRICARE Reserve Select (TRS), a military healthcare plan, while also participating in the Federal Employee Health Benefits (FEHB) program. Starting January 1, 2026, eligible members of the Selected Reserve and National Guard will be able to enroll in TRICARE Reserve Select, providing continuity of care during mobilization. The change directly affects these service members and their families, ensuring they have access to consistent healthcare coverage. The bill amends an existing expiration date in federal law to implement this change.
