This legislation, known as the TRICARE Transition Transparency Act of 2025, aims to ensure that TRICARE beneficiaries are adequately informed about necessary changes to their healthcare enrollment. It directs the Secretary of Defense to provide electronic notices to individuals facing a TRICARE coverage transition requirement , which involves making a new election to continue their enrollment, often due to attaining a certain age. These critical notifications must be delivered at specific intervals: one year, 180 days, and 30 days prior to the beneficiary's transition date. Furthermore, the bill mandates an extensive outreach and public awareness campaign utilizing various platforms like the TRICARE website, social media, and family readiness groups. The Secretary is also required to submit annual reports to Congress detailing the implementation of these provisions and offering recommendations for improvement.
