Have you been looking for a quick and easy way to help TRICARE South Region beneficiaries find you? If your answer is “yes,” look no further than the Humana Military Healthcare Services, Inc. (Humana Military) Web site.
Visit and log on to our page“
MyHMHS for Providers.” This secure provider portal offers you a unique way to relay updates to your provider relations representative via the “Provider Direct Entry for Updates and Changes” tool.
Available to network providers with secure access, this feature allows you to view and update your locator information online. The “Provider Direct Entry for Updates and Changes” page provides a summary of your office information, which is used to populate the provider locator and online
referral selection screens.
Although it was launched near the end of 2006, the tool has only been used intermittently. Humana Military therefore encourages you to begin using this valuable, time-saving tool. It will eliminate the need for you to call or mail your office updates, and because it is available through our secure provider portal, there is less chance of your information being relayed incorrectly or to the wrong party.
“Provider Direct Entry for Updates and Changes” is currently available for individual providers (except behavioral health care providers) in the TRICARE South Region.
In the future, the goal is to make it available for hospitals, clinics and group settings, including physical therapy, outpatient rehabilitation and ambulatory surgical centers.
Remember, keeping your contact and location information up to date ensures that TRICARE beneficiaries can find you. And in accordance with TRICARE Prime access standards, it helps to guarantee that patients will not have to travel more than 30 minutes to see their primary care manager or more than one hour to see a specialist.
Visit “
MyHMHS for Providers” to use the “Provider Direct Entry for Updates and Changes” tool whenever your contact and locator information changes. This will ensure that TRICARE beneficiaries who are looking for you are pointed in the right direction.
