I understand there may have been abuse in the past but there needs to be more clarity on who is not eligible. It would also suck to pay into a system (albeit for only a few months), have a legitimate need for that program but not have access to it.
An email from the MEC came out today clarifying this issue. We are eligible to recoup the cost of spouse’s insurance, Tri-Care, etc. Phew! One less thing to worry about.
