I spoke to a Vet at work today that went to the Doctor today.
He said he had gotten a supplemental program, as he knew this was coming, but he was the first patient in his Drs office today to be officially informed that the TRICARE no longer paid.

Whoa! I know that the House is passing one thing at a time. I just want them not to give in, for once. I can’t wait for Boehner, or howeer you spell it, to be ousted. I’m wondering what got to him to hold now.

Glad I was scanning through yesterday's Canteen. The word "Tricare" grabbed me, as my late husband served in the USMC for 28 years, and trusted that Tricare would take care of my supplemental medical insurance, for the rest of my life.

"first patient in his Drs office today to be officially informed that the TRICARE no longer paid."

The following is a quote from the Army Times:

"Tricare beneficiaries should see little impact from implementation of the Affordable Care Act because the military health care system was excluded from the law and Congress later passed legislation defining Tricare as meeting the act’s insurance coverage requirements."

Affordable Care Act: No impact on Tricare, but some coverage isn't equal (click here)

Does anybody here have any information on Tricare for Life in relation to the Budget or Obama(don't)Care (also known as Unaffordable Health Care Act)?
