Abstract
The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs (ASD(HA)) issues this interim final rule (IFR) with comment to modify the TRICARE regulation by adding freestanding End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) facilities as a category of TRICARE-authorized institutional provider and establishing reimbursement for such facilities and by temporarily adopting Medicare's New Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Treatments Add-on Payments (NCTAPs).
