New TRICARE Fees for Panama

Week of March 16, 2009

A new TRICARE provider fee schedule for medical services and procedures is in effect for Panama. TRICARE officials expect the new fee schedule to better reflect actual medical costs. There are no changes in payments for laboratory, radiology, and pathology services and procedures. TRICARE Standard deductibles and cost-shares will not change for beneficiaries in Panama under the new fee schedule. The new allowable charges and inpatient per diem rates are available on the TRICARE website.
