Are there any statutory or regulatory barriers that prevent the TRICARE basic program from covering ABA services delivered under the tiered service delivery model?

Secretary Wright, are you making any changes to how the study will be implemented?

I would like to work with you on that because I think that's very important.

the budget proposal to shift billions more in health care costs to military beneficiaries is unacceptable.

I urge constant advocacy in every State because I think people have to see the face and understand the family impacts of these types of decisions.

Mr. Hale, it has come to my attention that the Army is considering a proposal to restructure its financial enterprise...

They will not be evaluated whether they can do the job like men do it. They will be evaluated as to whether they can do the job.

What additional authorities do you need in order to maintain a high-quality civilian cyber force?

we will try to get that in the next NDAA, because it would be very useful.

Thank you, Madam Chairwoman.

Do you have a plan in place to allow for continued coverage of ABA therapy for families accessing the pilot?

I am very worried. Our last hearing we had was on suicide rates, and there has been a horrible increase in the number of both Active Duty and veteran status personnel who have committed suicide.

What is the rationale for the timing of these proposals? Why not wait until the commission reports?

I think has made a huge step forward in terms of providing support for victims and of seeing increased reporting of sexual assaults.

We could cut all kinds of benefit programs and we still wouldn't have enough, and we'd end up cutting significant end strength and weapons programs.

This has been invaluable in the deliberations we have to undergo in order to write the next national defense authorization bill.

I want to thank all of you for your testimony.

Are industrial control system engineers included in this strategy?

I've also heard about DOD's needs in terms of its civilian cyber workforce.

what are you doing to ensure that the Services are, in fact, producing gender neutral physical standards?

the Services are in the process of integrating women into ground combat roles in compliance with the 2013 DOD directive that opens all combat roles to women by January 1, 2016.

Dr. Woodson, how would this year's proposal increase the out-of-pocket cost of healthcare for Active Duty family members, military retirees under the age of 65, and military retirees using TRICARE for Life (TFL)?

What have you included in your budget submission for fiscal year 2015 to improve upon TRICARE's coverage of ABA therapy for military dependents?

It's terrible health care.

I would be grateful for a report on it.
