Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 186 / Monday, September 27, 2010 / Notices
Duty members and Active Duty
dependents enrolled in TRICARE Prime
pay no co-payments for inpatient or
outpatient health care services. DoD
may establish special co-pay rules for
the FHCC under demonstration project
authority of 10 U.S.C. 1092 for other
beneficiaries.’’ Under this
demonstration, co-pays will be waived
for any eligible DoD beneficiary seeking
healthcare at the FHCC. The waiver of
cost sharing applies to all impatient,
outpatient, and ancillary services and
all outpatient prescription drugs
provided at the FHCC. The waiver is
consistent with current policies and
procedures followed at all MTFs.
According to an Independent
Government Cost Estimate (IGCE), it is
estimated that waiving the co-pays for
all beneficiaries including Medicareeligible beneficiaries will cost DoD an
additional $101,518 a year. This cost
assumes that the lack of co-pays would
lead to a 20 percent increase in
utilization by the affected groups (i.e.
induced demand) at this facility.
Without this assumption, the waiver
would cost DoD an additional $84,599
annually. The cost of additional staffing
required to compute and collect copayments could easily be more than
$100,000 per year.
The effectiveness of this
demonstration will be tested by
comparing the volume of care for
beneficiaries that would have paid copayments to the prior year volume to
determine if increased utilization
actually occurred as a result of the
elimination of co-payments. Increased
utilization would be an indicator of
what to expect in future DoD/VA
mergers of this nature and would
influence decisions regarding financial
integration. The final report on this
demonstration will accompany the final
report on the FHCC demonstration
required by Section 1701, NDAA 2010.
