Military CARE Act mandates a digital system for TRICARE beneficiaries to report access issues at military medical facilities.

The Military CARE Act requires the Secretary of Defense to establish a digital system for TRICARE beneficiaries to file complaints about access to care at military medical treatment facilities. The system allows beneficiaries to electronically submit complaints and track their status. The Secretary must also submit annual reports to Congress detailing the number of complaints and comparing issues related to specialty care, primary care, pediatric care, and administrative hurdles. The reports will also summarize steps taken to reduce access complaints at these facilities.
