This proposed rule would establish an exception to the usual rule that TRICARE Prime enrollment fees are uniform for the group of retirees and their dependents. Survivors and medically retired members are part of the retiree group under TRICARE rules. This exception would allow survivors of active duty deceased sponsors and medically retired uniformed services members and their dependents enrolled in Prime to be exempt from future increases in TRICARE Prime enrollment fees. The Prime beneficiaries in these categories prior to Oct. 1, 2011, would have their annual enrollment fee frozen at the current rate of $230 per single, and $460 per family. The beneficiaries added to these categories on or after Oct. 1, 2011, would have their fee frozen at the rate in effect at the time they are classified in either category and enroll in Prime or, if not enrolling, at the rate in effect at the time of enrollment. The fee remains frozen as long as at least one family member remains enrolled in Prime and there is not a break in enrollment. The fee charged for the dependent(s) of a medically retired uniformed services member would not change if the dependent(s) was later reclassified a survivor.
