  • Meet the 'Baum Squad' - Brothers in Arms

    The term ‘Brothers in Arms’ stems from a long-time comradery between service members as they face adversity together and learn to rely on each other like family. For the Baumgartner brothers, that phrase has taken on a more literal meaning that spans three separate generations.

  • Take command: Urgent care now easier to access

    As of Jan. 1, 2018, most TRICARE Prime enrollees no longer need a referral for urgent care visits and point-of-service charges no longer apply for urgent care claims. This change replaces the previous policy, which waived referrals for the first two urgent care visits per year.

  • Double check your personnel data

    With the New Year just starting you should start it off on the right foot. Now is the perfect time to make sure your personnel records are up to date and correct. These records aren’t just for you. They can affect your career and pay, but they can also affect your family as well.
