The Europe Regional Medical Command is asking troops and families to update or confirm their mailing addresses and DEERS information.
TRICARE will use Defense Eligibility Enrollment System data to mail out information about changes involving medical care supplied by local national, non-military medical facilities. The mailings are to begin in August and those with the wrong addresses in the system won’t receive it.
International SOS Inc. has been selected as the contractor for overseas programs beginning Aug. 31 and is currently reviewing local national facilities with a goal of setting up approved networks for TRICARE patients.
More information about the new contract is available at www.tricare.mil/TOPcontract.
