Active Duty Service Members
Active duty service members must receive behavioral health care services at an MTF when available. If enrolled in TRICARE Prime Remote, you may receive authorization from your Service Point of Contact (SPOC).
If you are enrolled in TRICARE Prime, you can receive the first eight behavioral health outpatient visits per fiscal year from a TRICARE network provider without a referral from your primary care manager (PCM) or prior authorization from your regional contractor. After the first eight visits, you must receive prior authorization from your regional contractor.
When using TRICARE Extra or TRICARE Standard, you can receive your first eight behavioral health outpatient visits per fiscal year without prior authorization from your regional contractor. Referrals are not required at any time for specialty care. After the first eight visits, you must receive prior authorization from your regional contractor. CCHS is a TRICARE Network Provider, therefore reducing your out-of-pocket expenses.
