TRICARE Reserve Select Handbook

TRICARE Reserve Select (TRS) is a premium-based health plan that qualified National Guard and Reserve members may purchase unless eligible for coverage under the Federal Employees Health Benefits program (FEHB). If either the member or spouse is eligible to purchase the FEHB then the member and family are not eligible to purchase TRS.

We use the terms National Guard and Reserve throughout this handbook to include:
 

• Army National Guard
• Army Reserve
• Navy Reserve
• Marine Corps Reserve
• Air National Guard
• Air Force Reserve
• U.S. Coast Guard Reserve

TRS offers coverage similar to TRICARE Standard and TRICARE Extra, and a monthly premium will be charged. You will receive comprehensive coverage with access to TRICARE-authorized providers. Annual deductibles, cost-shares, and a catastrophic cap apply. You may access care from a military treatment facility (MTF) on a space-available basis only. You may fill prescriptions through the MTF, the TRICARE mail-order pharmacy, and TRICARE retail network and non-network pharmacies.  Costs for prescription medications vary depending upon the pharmacy option you choose and the medication’s availability on the uniform formulary.

For more information about TRS coverage, visit the TRICARE Reserve Select Web site. For more information about the National Guard and Reserve and the Selected Reserve, visit the Reserve Affairs Web site.
