| 2014-30322 | TRICARE; Revision of Nonparticipating Providers Reimbursement Rate; Removal of Cost Share for Dental Sealants; TRICARE Dental Program | Proposed Rule | The Department of Defense (DoD) proposes several amendments to the TRICARE Dental Program (TDP) regulation. Specifically, this proposed rule revises the benefit payment provision for nonparticipating providers to more closely mirror industry practices by requiring TDP nonparticipating providers to be reimbursed (minus the appropriate cost-share) at the lesser of billed charges: or the network maximum allowable charge for similar services in that same locality (region) or state. This rule also updates the regulatory provisions regarding dental sealants to clearly categorize them as a preventive service and, consequently, eliminate the current 20 percent cost-share applicable to sealants to conform the language in the regulation to the statute. | 2014-12-30 | 2014 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2014/12/30/2014-30322/tricare-revision-of-nonparticipating-providers-reimbursement-rate-removal-of-cost-share-for-dental | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-12-30/pdf/2014-30322.pdf | Defense Department | 103 | The Department of Defense (DoD) proposes several amendments to the TRICARE Dental Program (TDP) regulation.
