TRS re-enrollment deadline approaching Sept. 30

  • Published
Commanders-  Time is running out for your reservists to enroll or re-enroll in the new, lower-rate Tricare Reserve Select without a break in coverage. On Sept. 14, we sent your MPF commanders and superintendents a link to the Tricare Reserve Select folder on the AFRC/A1XS Community of Practice which lists the Airmen that have not yet re-enrolled. Right now, 200 or 21 percent of people enrolled in the current three-tier program have not re-enrolled. They will be disenrolled if they do not re-enroll by Sept. 30.

This new program reduces premiums for all Airmen in the Selected Reserve to the lowest of the old three-tier program. This is a great opportunity, but I need your help in passing this information to your Airmen. We don't want anyone to miss out on the coverage they are authorized.

For more information on the new TRS, visit http://www.arpc.afrc.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet.asp?id=9455.  

To participate in TRS, Airmen must be registered in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS). If not already registered, they should go to the nearest MPF - DEERS/RAPIDS location or call the Defense Manpower Data Center Support Office at 800-538-9552 or visit http://www.tricare.mil/  to update their information or register.
