TRICARE

Medical Care

There are over ten major private and public hospitals in the San Juan Metropolitan Area; various health centers that offer a wide variety of services; and medical institutions that specialize in the treatment of heart disease, mental health, cancer treatment, substance abuse counseling and treatment, nuclear medicine, and others. Most of them accept TRICARE, and other major health insurance programs. The TRICARE Prime program for active-duty Service members (ADSM) is the primary care management for referrals and authorizations. Yearly deductibles and copayments apply for active-duty Family members (ADFM) enrolled in TRICARE Select. 

Newly arriving ADSM should stop by the Tricare Service Center (TSC) located within the Welcome Center with copy of their orders to complete Prime enrollment. Family members need to be command sponsored to qualify for TRICARE Prime. Telephonic enrollments are available through the Global TSC at Philadelphia, by calling 1-877 451-8659.

There is no TRICARE PRIME program for retired Soldiers in overseas locations. For more information contact the TSC at 787 707-2534 or at www.tricare-overseas.com

Dental Care

Dental Care is provided by United Concordia Dental Program. There is only one private Dental Clinic available on-post. Dental Insurance must be purchased for both ADSM and ADFM. The TRICARE Family Member Dental Plan (TFMDP) is a comprehensive and affordable dental plan available to eligible spouses and children of active-duty military.

When you move, TRICARE moves with you. No matter where you go in the world, TRICARE is there before, during and when you get to your next duty station.

There are steps you need to take to make sure changes to your TRICARE coverage go smoothly. Understand that when you move, you may have to use a different TRICARE option. Visit TRICARE Moving to learn more.

Before you move, you should take care of any routine medical needs, including immunizations, and fill your prescriptions so you have enough while traveling. If you need care during your move, visit TRICARE Getting Care When Traveling to learn what to do.

Filling prescriptions while traveling

You should refill prescriptions before traveling. But if you run out of a prescription drug while traveling, visit TRICARE Filling Prescriptions When Traveling.

Getting dental care while traveling

Getting dental care while traveling depends on your location and whether you are a service member or family member.

• If you are an active-duty service member within the United States or in U.S. territories, and near a military installation, you may be able to get emergency dental care at the dental treatment facility, or DTF, if available. If not, contact the TRICARE Active Duty Dental Care Program before you see a dentist and tell the contractor about your move. You will need to get an authorization before you see a dentist. The Active Duty Dental Care Program will work with you, so you can get care from a local network dentist.
• If you are an active-duty service member at an overseas location, call the TRICARE overseas regional call center to get authorization before you see a civilian dentist.
• If you are an active-duty family member within the United States, in U.S. territories or at an overseas location, you can find out if any nearby military dental treatment facility treats active-duty family members. If you're enrolled in the TRICARE dental program, call the TRICARE dental program contractor or visit their website to find a provider. You will need to get an authorization before you see the dentist.

With permanent change of station orders, ask for a copy of your medical and dental records from your military treatment facility and the dental treatment facility. Do this at least one month before your PCS date. The MTF should also transfer a copy of your record and any family records to your new duty station or you may be able to hand carry them to your new duty station.

If you want someone else to be able to get medical or dental information on you or your family while you are moving, you need to complete a DD Form 2870, "Authorization for Disclosure of Medical or Dental Information."

For more information on getting copies of medical records, visit TRICARE Request Copies of Medical Records.
