Alright, folks! The live stream has wrapped up. Keep an eye on our ongoing coverage right here.
Now, if you're curious about the health and insurance-related topics discussed during the White House live page (you can check it out in their video library), here's the lowdown:
For folks who were TRICARE members and have lost their military benefits, they might want to look into the Continued Health Care Benefit Program (CHCBP). This program offers temporary coverage for 18 to 36 months after the loss of military benefits.
On the other hand, if you're a Medicaid recipient, it's crucial to check renewal requirements according to your state's schedule.
If you're a service member planning to transition out with some health issues, you should be aware of the SGLI Disability Extension. This allows for 2 years of free coverage post-separation if you're totally disabled or meet specific injury criteria. You can apply for this via the SGLV 8715 form. After the disability extension period, you'd need to transition to the VGLI.
Remember, you can always revisit the archived live stream for specific policy details. If you have questions about any of these topics, don't hesitate to reach out:
- TRICARE: 1-800-444-5445
- VA: 800-827-1000
- Your state's Medicaid office: Check your local government's website for contact information.
As for employment-related coverage changes, you might want to check the latest labor policy shifts on the White House's live stream (particularly the "Labor Secretary" segment) and review the current guidance at labor.gov.
