Tricare question - Military Benefits

MichelleB · 10-11-2006, 10:06 AM

Since I've had the Navy's insurance I haven't seen my primary care doctor. All of my OB stuff was taken care of through the OB/GYN clinic at the hospital so that's the only doctor I've ever seen.

Taylor goes to a civilian doctor.

My question is, can I call tricare and request that we have the same doctor?

I dont see why you couldnt. Robbie and I had the same Dr when we got down here, but She is leaving like either this week or next week so now i will have to choose another PCM for me since Robbie will be seeing the Pediatrician there. I know who i want too.

I cant help you out. I go on base at the clinic because around here going out in town is just as long of a wait. I know when I was a remote, it was so HARD to get an appointment.

Thanks Cat! I guess I will call my PCM first. I don't know if I need to make a seperate appointment to see him/her before I ask for my flu shot or not. I guess we'll see.
