Tricare Prime approval for partial hysterectomy & tummy tuck at same time?

I've already read thru the library here on AMOS and couldn't find many answers. I have Tricare Prime insurance and my PCM is at a military treatment facility. I had LAP-RNY at Vanderbilt in Nashville 8 months ago. I was referred off the military base due to a moderately severe heart condition. I am now faced with the option of having the inside of my uterus burned out or having a partial hysterectomy. If I choose the partial hysterectomy I'll be referred to Vanderbilt for that procedure. Since surgery is risky for me, I would like to have a tummy tuck done at the same time. Is there anyone out there who has had Tricare Prime cover their tummy tuck outside a military base? Or is there anyone out there who has had a partial hysterectomy and tummy tuck done at the same time? I want to be well informed about the procedures and my options.
