Does anyone lurk in this group anymore?

Hi ladies,

Just wondering if there are any active members in this group?  I would love to hear some current experiences with our beloved Tricare and their approval process lol.  

 

Hope to hear from some of you soon :), 

i am in and out of the group and i would love to share my experince..and happy to say in the end was a happy experince. tricare is very quick compared to typical insurance companies i have heard from my surgeon..basically if u are going threw a military provider such as a military hospital. then ur approval is in their hands. taking that u pass the mental evaluation and meet the standard requirements.. the program that ft campbell has i love and am thankful that i got such a great team that works with me .. if there is anything u need to know specifically i would be happy to help where i can..

I had mine at a military hospital, so I didn't have to go through that process. It was an easier process for me, than some others I know. They had to go through more than I did to get it, but the approval part was still a fairly easy process for them. I know of one girl that had hers a month ago, she had moved back home while her husband is deployed and had zero problem getting approval through Tricare for an outside provider. As a matter of fact, she called me to ask questions one day, and the next time I spoke to her, she was 2 weeks post-op. That fast for her in TX.

Wish we had more active members on here, maybe we can get things going.  I am 3 month post op and the approval process went pretty fast for me.  Almost too fast, I started the whole thing the end of Oct and had me surgery Jan 31st.  I was prepared for the surgery but felt a little lost when it came to the post op.  I am gettting things down now, but it was a whirlwind to say the least.  Here to help if you have any questions.
