‘Small’ inpatient fee hike of 21% seen as broken promise
Published: October 6, 2009

“Defense health officials didn’t do the Obama administration any favor Wednesday when they announced a “small” increase in the daily fee that military retirees under 65, their families and covered survivors must pay for inpatient care in civilian hospitals under TRICARE Standard starting Oct. 1.

The jump, in fact, for working age retirees and their families is $110 per day, a 20.6 percent increase.”
