As summer approaches and outdoor activities increase, it’s essential to protect your skin from harmful ultraviolet rays. TRICARE is committed to supporting your skin health by covering skin cancer exams and providing resources for prevention and treatment.

Taking care of your mental health is just as important as taking care of your body—and if you have TRICARE For Life, you have coverage that helps you get the care you need, when you need it.

Keeping up to date with TRICARE health information is part of making the right healthcare choices for both you and your family members. Equally important, however, is how you manage your healthcare communications so you have quick and easy access to important records and information. This includes your explanation of benefits statements, bills, claims correspondence, and more.

A winning smile needs maintenance—including dental care. If you’re enrolled in the TRICARE Dental Program, you can get cost-effective, accessible dental services in the U.S. or abroad.
