Right Choices for Maternity Care

In planning for maternity care, military families have a choice between Tricare Standard or enrolling in TRICARE Prime. Recent changes in TRICARE regulations allow beneficiaries with TRICARE Standard to choose a civilian provider for maternity care, even if they live close to a military treatment facility (MTF). However, beneficiaries need to understand all the financial implications when they disenroll from TRICARE Prime and convert to TRICARE Standard. The situation can be confusing and could result in unexpected out-of-pocket expenses. For more information, contact the TRICARE Service Center at an MTF or visit the TRICARE website for more information.
