Then you aren't using the system properly. You should never wait months. Tricare is required to refer you to civilian if they can't see you in a relatively short period of time. I believe it is one month. You should not be waiting 3 minths to see someone at Walter Reed or Belvoir. You need to educate yourself on your rights regarding care. This has nothing to do with doge. This is tricare being tricare. |
Rights don’t mean much when there’s no one to answer calls. |
The outside providers I’ve seen are terrible and it still takes a long time to get appointments or they are really far. You have no rights. |
Exactly. |
Are you calling the right number? |
NP. Tricare in the NCR is business as usual and actually still better than it was a couple of years ago when they were switching over to MHS Genesis. Everyone I know who was on Prime when they arrived ended up moving to Select after a year or two of dealing with it here. Open enrollment is in November, might be something to consider especially if you need to see specialists. |
They might not be. We called last week and got helped in around 10 minutes. |
