Expectant Mothers and TRICARE

If an expectant mother relocates during her pregnancy, TRICARE guarantees her continuity of care. To stay on track, moms-to-be should discuss their upcoming move with their provider and request copies of their medical records. Once the move is complete, the sponsor must update every family member's information in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS). To learn more about moving with TRICARE, visit the TRICARE website at www.tricare.mil/mybenefit and enter your profile information. There are beneficiary counseling and assistance coordinators available to help with healthcare questions or to navigate the TRICARE program; find one at www.tricare.mil/bcac.
