MOAA’s TRICARE Guide put it best: “The transition to retiree status can mean significant changes in health care options and potentially higher costs.”

Unsure how best to navigate those changes (and those costs)? The link above is a good start – you’ll get details on the different TRICARE plans, links to up-to-date pricing, a list of steps to take before leaving uniform, and much more.

Want more help? TRICARE will host a webinar on May 23 at 4 p.m. Eastern to answer your coverage questions. Whether you are retiring from active duty or the reserve component, or your sponsor is preparing to retire, you’ll benefit from an overview of upcoming changes, to include a look at dental and vision options.

Remember: Retirement from active duty (or from the National Guard or Reserve at age 60) counts as a Qualifying Life Event, giving you 90 days to change your TRICARE plan outside of open season.
