CBO scores pay-as-you-go costs of $276 million over the 2002 through 2006 period, while OMB scores savings of $883 million. The difference is largely due to different scoring for the provisions decreasing health care benefit payments for certain military retirees. CBO assumes that under current law, the Department of Defense would have implemented the regulations required by these provisions in 2004, and therefore, scores the reduced spending as savings only in 2003. OMB scores the reduced spending in every year after 2003, because these regulations were not assumed in its baseline.
