As a Military Retiree the medical is all messed up, we were promised health care for life as part of our benefit package. Then they started adding fees & copays. After your 65 you go into Tri-care for Life (TFL), but you have to have Medicare Part A & B, in 2026 the Medicare part B premium will be $202.90, up from $185.00.

So Medicare is my primary insurance & TFL is my secondary, so I am 100% covered for $202.90 per month, my wife is also a Military Retiree, so that's another $202.90 per month.

So what we were suppose to be getting as part of our benefit package, now costs us 405.80 per month.

The active duty soldiers currently have to pay a premium of 181.92 to 372 for a single soldier for a year, and $364.92 to $744 for a family per year.

On top of that I have to pay additional premium for my Dental & Vision.

Those dead beats on Medicaid get much better benefits than our soldiers and they pay ZERO.

They need to do a complete overhaul of the VA.
