Don't those military health programs have to meet the ACA requirements? The ACA may still apply to you.
Yes military and VA health programs have to meet the requirements but it's really a non issue for the ones in this boat. Each year we get the "yes your plan meets the ACA compliance" at tax time but for me it goes into the trash as it means nothing.
I really don't understand anything about the ACA as I have never had to deal with it. However I am glad the pre-existing conditions aren't an issue anymore.
