TRICARE Prime Remote beneficiaries (excluding ADSMs) without an assigned PCM and TRICARE Select beneficiaries do not require an approval from HNFS prior to services being rendered; however, a physician’s order is required for claims processing. Coverage is based on the beneficiary's medical needs. Copayments and cost-shares are subject to change at the beginning of each calendar year. Copayments are per occurrence or per visit. Cost-shares are a percentage of the contracted rate for network providers and the maximum TRICARE allowable for non-network providers on certain types of services. Testing copayment waiver: Retroactive to March 18, 2020, TRICARE will waive copayments/cost-shares for medically necessary COVID-19 diagnostic and antibody testing and related services, and office visits, urgent care or emergency room visits during which tests are ordered or administered. COVID-19 diagnostic and antibody tests must meet Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA) criteria in. The TRICARE Prime copay will only be charged to those service members and their families who are not active duty. However, there is a TRICARE Prime cost added if members use the point-of-service option. This happens when members fail to get a referral from their PCM for specialist services. Retirees covered under TRICARE Prime will also see minor copay increases. These will apply to emergency room visits, outpatient surgery and ground ambulance. Copays for these items will increase by $1. Also, copays for inpatient admissions will increase by $4 per admission.

Annual deductibles apply to network and non-network providers for outpatient services only.

• Deductibles must be met before TRICARE benefits are payable.
• Once the deductible is met, cost-shares apply.
• Network providers can collect at a minimum the copayment at the time of service. A provider may also collect the outstanding balance of the deductible. The explanation of benefits (EOB) will inform the beneficiary and provider of the allowed amount and patient responsibility.
• Deductibles apply to the catastrophic cap.
• TRICARE Select, TRICARE Young Adult Select, TRICARE Reserve Select, and TRICARE Retired Reserve deductibles do not apply to preventive services.
  • Exception: Deductibles will apply to routine eye examinations (when covered), school physicals and assignment-ordered physicals, when performed by non-network providers.

A beneficiary's deductible is determined by the sponsor's initial enlistment or appointment date:

• Group A: Sponsor's enlistment or appointment date occurred prior to Jan. 1, 2018.
• Group B: Sponsor's enlistment or appointment date occurred on or after Jan. 1, 2018.
