I am a Reservist on active duty about to transition back to Reserve status. What kinds of health care services are provided for me and my family?
The TriCare Transitional Health Care program offers coverage to certain Reserve Component (RC) members and family members, when the RC member separates from active duty. The coverage time has been extended to 180 days after the sponsor separates from active duty for qualified RC members. The Department of Defense announced March 24, 2005, that beginning April 2005 a new premium-based, health care plan will be available to eligible National Guard and Reserve members activated for contingency operations on or after Sept. 11, 2001. Tricare Reserve Select (TRS) is authorized under the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal 2005 and, when purchased by a TRS eligible member, provides comprehensive health care coverage similar to Tricare Standard and Extra for the member and his or her eligible family members. National Guard or Reserve member’s personnel office will determine eligibility for TRS based on active service on or after Sept. 11, 2001. Health Care Web Sites: Transitional Hea
