FY2024 NDAA: Reproductive Health Care

Provisions



September 6, 2023


Background

The Department of Defense (DOD) administers a health entitlement (under Chapter 55 of Title 10, U.S.
Code) through the Military Health System (MHS). The MHS offers health care benefits and services
through its TRICARE program to approximately 9.6 million beneficiaries composed of servicemembers,
military retirees, and dependent family members. Congress often specifies certain TRICARE coverage
parameters (e.g., how health care services may be delivered, and cost-sharing requirements) through the
National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).
During ongoing deliberations on a fiscal year (FY) 2024 NDAA, Congress has expressed interest in
TRICARE   coverage policies for reproductive health care services. TRICARE currently covers
      reproductive health screening and preventive services,
      contraceptive services (i.e., birth control), and
      infertility services (e.g., diagnostic services for assisted reproductive technologies or
       ART).
Table 1 lists reproductive health care-related provisions included in the House-passed (H.R. 2670) and
the Senate-passed (S. 2226) versions of an FY2024 NDAA.
