TRICARE Fairness for National Guard and Reserve Retirees Act

Right now, former National Guard and Reserve members can start receiving their retirement pay before age 60 (but not before age 50) if they served enough time on active duty. However, they currently can only buy a specific type of military health insurance called TRICARE Retired Reserve until they turn 60. This bill would let those retirees who are already receiving their retirement pay buy the same TRICARE health coverage that other retired military members get, even if they are not yet 60 years old.
