This bill establishes a Tricare premium reimbursement program in Michigan, aimed at supporting members of the Michigan National Guard who are eligible for coverage under the Tricare reserve select program or the Tricare dental program. The Department of Military and Veterans Affairs is tasked with creating and operating this program, which will provide grants to eligible recipients for premiums paid for individual coverage under either of the specified Tricare programs. To qualify for reimbursement, eligible recipients must submit an application using a form provided by the department, which will also be made available on its website.

Additionally, the bill mandates that the department promulgate rules to implement the program in accordance with the administrative procedures act of 1969. The definitions of key terms such as "eligible recipient," "program," "Tricare dental program," and "Tricare reserve select program" are included to clarify the scope and intent of the legislation. The bill aims to enhance support for National Guard members by alleviating some of their healthcare costs through this reimbursement initiative.
