MH is active duty in Texas. We've been going to the hospital women's center on base so far for OB appointments, but I haven't been thrilled with them. I was recently referred off post for an u/s and I LOVED the med center and my u/s tech there, and I want to give birth there.
If they accept Tricare, can I switch to that med center (assuming they will take me as a new patient, of course), or do you have to go to the hospital on base?
Re: Tricare OB question
My guess is you are Prime, which is why you are being seen on base. If that is the case,the only way to be seen off base is to be referred out. Considering you are receiving care, it is highly unlikely you'll be referred out.
If you are standard, call up the practice and make an appointment. If you are not standard, but wish to be, go to the Tricare office and switch to Standard. Then you can call and make an appointment.
