Save Money on Prescriptions

Week of January 07, 2008

Saving money on regularly used prescriptions got a lot easier in 2007 with TRICARE's new Member Choice Center. The MCC can save beneficiaries money on medications -- and have them delivered -- by switching from retail pharmacies to the TRICARE mail order pharmacy. Converting from retail to mail order can be accomplished 24/7 at the DoD TRICARE Mail Order Pharmacy website or by calling 877-363-1433 to speak to a patient care advocate. The MCC patient care advocates contact physicians to have prescriptions switched over to the TRICARE mail order pharmacy.
