TRICARE
TRICARE North Region TRICARE is a Department of Defense (DoD) worldwide health care program that services eligible beneficiaries. Eligible beneficiaries include active duty service members, National Guard and Reserve members, retirees, their families, survivors and certain former spouses. The beneficiaries are from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Commissioned Corps of the U.S. Public Health Service, Commissioned Corps of the Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve, Air National Guard, and the Coast Guard Reserve. The DoD has partnered with regional contractors to help administer TRICARE in the three U.S. regions. We at the Hart-Dole-Inouye Federal Center and the reserve and guard units in Michigan are in TRICARE North Region. TRICARE North Regions contractor is Health Net Federal Services, Inc. The TRICARE health care program offers several health plan options that provide access to high quality care services through networks of civilian health care professionals, institutions, pharmacies and supplies: TRICARE Prime Remote, TRICARE Prime, TRICARE Standard, TRICARE Extra, TRICARE for Life, TRICARE Reserve Select, TRICARE Dental Program, TRICARE Retiree Dental Program, TRICARE Mail Order Pharmacy, TRICARE Retail Network Pharmacy, and TRICARE Non-network Pharmacy. To be eligible for TRICARE benefits, you and your family must be registered in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS). Links to update DEERS and to find the closest RAPID Office (ID cards/DEERS) are in the TRICARE table below. If you are relocating, TRICARE Prime is portable. This means that within TRICARE North, you may move within the region and your TRICARE Prime coverage moves with you. You will be required to enroll with a new Primary Care Manager (PCM) if you are enrolled in TRICARE Prime. Please note that the PCMs in the local area are no longer accepting new TRICARE Prime members. The local PCMs will continue to accept the TRICARE Prime Remote members. If you are relocating outside of the region, you must contact the region contractor for instructions on how to transfer your coverage. Below is a table with links that hopefully will narrow down your benefit research. Additional links will be added upon response to customer inquiries, or as they are discovered. For your convenience and by your requests, many resources for military and veteran benefits have been added to this list. This list of TRICARE and military/veteran resources may not be all inclusive. The below listings are derived from various resources, and for the most part, only include the pay/compensation and medical resources for the local area. All listings are in alphabetic order. There are many other benefits and resources, most of which can be researched in several of the resources provided below.
