TRICARE wants its non-Active Duty beneficiaries to know that they may make their first eight outpatient behavioral health care visits per fiscal year (Oct. 1? Sept. 30) without a referral from a primary care manager or prior authorization from their managed care support contractor (MCSC). To avoid the 50 percent cost share for behavioral health visits, TRICARE Prime beneficiaries must seek care from a TRICARE network provider. For more information, visit the mental health and behavioral page at the TRICARE website. The Military One Source website also has useful resources and information on behavioral health.
