On July 13, 2000, Congress enacted Public Law No. 106-246, "Making Appropriations for Military Construction, Family Housing, and Base Realignment and Closure for the Department of Defense for Fiscal Year Ending September 30, 2001, and for Other Purposes."

In addition, DoD was directed to report to the congressional Defense committees within 60 days after enactment on whether DoD violated fiscal law or departmental regulations related to the shortfalls. Public Law No. 106-246, section 105, specifically appropriated $615.6 million of the $1.3 billion for the Defense Health Program with the following stipulations specified in section 106.
