senate 07/10/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to establish a pilot program that allows pregnancy to be recognized as a qualifying event for enrollment in TRICARE Select, aiming to improve access to prenatal care for military families. This bipartisan effort will help ensure expectant military members and their families can adjust their healthcare coverage when it matters most.
