Tricare Q:

Vets using Tricare with a family. I’m out and can use Tricare with the VA, but my wife and I each use our company offerings for our family; which obviously come at cost. Is it worth it to switch to Tricare? Has anyone done this and can share details? Positives/negatives?

Switched to Tricare reserve a few years ago - has been pretty good and cost effective for nearly everything. However, switched back to company insurance because Tricare doesn’t do IVF

Yes. Untethered.

I thought we were unable to use Tricare if we are
out unless we are rated at 100%. Is that not correct?

Reserve can use it but have to pay a monthly premium

I didn't apply for a job that would have set me up for the future in the government. I wouldn't have to worry about money or future jobs.

It's a small town and rarely anything comes up. I hate myself and feel like I failed my family. :(
