TRICARE Fairness for National Guard and Reserve Retirees Act
This bill amends U.S. Code sections to expand TRICARE eligibility for National Guard and Reserve retirees. It removes an age barrier preventing members under 60 from accessing TRICARE benefits if they qualify for non-regular retirement under Chapter 1223 but aren't yet receiving retired pay (due to specific provisions in Title 38). The key change defines "TRICARE Retired Reserve" to include these members who meet three criteria: qualifying for non-regular retirement at 60, being under 60, and not receiving retired pay due to Title 38 rules. The amendments take effect 18 months after the bill's enactment.
