AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes federal military health law about wigs for people covered by TRICARE, the military health program. Under current law, wigs may be provided to people with hair loss caused by treatment of cancer, and only if they have not received one before. The bill would require that wigs be provided to people with hair loss caused by any health condition or its treatment, except androgenic alopecia (common pattern hair loss). It would also remove the limit of one wig per person.
