| 97-33111 | Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services (CHAMPUS); Revisions to the Eligibility Requirements | Proposed Rule | This proposed rule revises the comprehensive CHAMPUS regulation pertaining to basic CHAMPUS benefits in accordance with several statutory changes. This proposed rule: sets forth the requirements for reinstatement of CHAMPUS eligibility for beneficiaries under age 65 who would otherwise have lost eligibility for CHAMPUS due to eligibility for Medicare as a result of disability or end-stage renal disease (ESRD); establishes new classes of CHAMPUS eligibles; establishes the Transitional Assistance Management Program which provides transitional health care for members (and their dependents) who served on active duty in support of a contingency operation and for members (and their dependents) who are involuntarily separated from active duty; allows former spouses who buy a conversion health policy to keep CHAMPUS eligibility for twenty-four (24) months for preexisting conditions that are not covered by the conversion policy; and makes minor technical revisions to the double coverage provisions. This proposed rule also adds a new category of eligible beneficiary under the Continued Health Care Benefit Program. | 1997-12-23 | 1997 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1997/12/23/97-33111/civilian-health-and-medical-program-of-the-uniformed-services-champus-revisions-to-the-eligibility | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1997-12-23/pdf/97-33111.pdf | Defense Department | 103 | This proposed rule revises the comprehensive CHAMPUS regulation pertaining to basic CHAMPUS benefits in accordance with several statutory changes.
