Disabled Veteran? You may have questions about TRICARE.

Did you know that a VA disability rating alone doesn’t automatically make you eligible for TRICARE? Your military retirement or medical retirement status may be the key. 🏥

👉 Know your benefits. Know your options.

Some veterans receiving VA disability are eligible for TRICARE, and receiving veterans disability benefits won’t disqualify you.
