# 10 U.S.C. § 1095g - TRICARE program: waiver of recoupment of erroneous payments caused by administrative error
|
||
|
||
## Text
|
||
|
||
(a) Waiver of Recoupment.— The Secretary of Defense may waive recoupment from an individual who has benefitted from an erroneous TRICARE payment in a case in which each of the following applies:
|
||
|
||
(1) The payment was made because of an administrative error by an employee of the Department of Defense or a contractor under the TRICARE program.
|
||
|
||
(2) The individual (or in the case of a minor, the parent or guardian of the individual) had a good faith, reasonable belief that the individual was entitled to the benefit of such payment under this chapter.
|
||
|
||
(3) The individual relied on the expectation of such entitlement.
|
||
|
||
(4) The Secretary determines that a waiver of recoupment of such payment is necessary to prevent an injustice.
|
||
|
||
(b) Responsibility of Contractor.— In any case in which the Secretary waives recoupment under subsection (a) and the administrative error was on the part of a contractor under the TRICARE program, the Secretary shall, consistent with the requirements and procedures of the applicable contract, impose financial responsibility on the contractor for the erroneous payment.
|
||
|
||
(c) Finality of Determinations.— Any determination by the Secretary under this section to waive or decline to waive recoupment under subsection (a) is a final determination and shall not be subject to appeal or judicial review.
|
||
