"TRICARE covers a vasectomy when performed as an independent procedure.

Vasectomy reversals are not covered.

There used to be, and probably still are, certain requirements that must be met such as married (we already know he qualifies on that), of a certain age and already has children or is old enough to know that he will never want children again. They don't want some 18 year old getting a vasectomy because that person would likely want it reversed later.
