TRICARE Reserve Select Update
(Article 5)

Effective June 21, 2006, TRICARE introduced some changes to beneficiary enrollment costs for the TRICARE Reserve Select (TRS) program. These changes apply to the premium tier under which a National Guard/Reserve member may qualify to purchase TRS coverage. TRICARE Reserve Select offers comprehensive health coverage similar to TRICARE Standard and TRICARE Extra.

  
Enrollment Cards

After purchasing TRS, each beneficiary receives a TRS enrollment card. Providers should make a photocopy of the front and back of the card for their files. Refer to the TRICARE Provider Handbook online to view sample TRS enrollment cards. You can also verify TRS beneficiary eligibility online or by calling 1-800-444-5445.

       
Authorizations for Care
Like other TRICARE coverage, prior authorization is required for certain services under the TRICARE Reserve Select program. View a list of services requiring prior authorization or call 1-800-444-5445.

Submitting Claims

As with all other TRICARE health plans, TRICARE network providers are required to file their claims electronically. Should a Image of Navy familyprovider have to file a paper claim, it should be submitted to PGBA, LLC in the same manner as TRICARE Standard/Extra beneficiary claims.
