TriWest Healthcare Alliance is offering a new lung health service to West Region TRICARE beneficiaries eligible for its Disease Management programs. Beneficiaries suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, can receive extra help for a group of lung diseases that include emphysema, chronic bronchitis and, in some cases, asthma. Eligibility is determined by TRICARE and is based on claims history. Once a beneficiary is identified as eligible to participate in the program, DoD refers the beneficiary to TriWest. Beneficiaries can find additional resources on the TriWest website.
Military.com surveys have found that most servicemembers and their families are confused by TRICARE. Get the facts and latest news on TRICARE.
