With Tricare For Life (TFL) I presume you are a retiree, over 65, and have Medicare. As you know, TFL requires that you have Medicare as you primary insurance and they are secondary insurers.
You will have only one minor administrative problem here with TFL. Medicare and TFL both want you to just have your providers bill Medicare. Medicare will "take care of" sending the "co-pay" part of your bill to Tricare and then Tricare will pay it. The admin problem is that providers "insist" on knowing who your secondary coverage is with and will sometimes try to bill TFL directly. This always screws up the system a little. Not your problem but it does cause some extra paperwork to flow sometimes.
Other than that, TFL is always accepted where ever Medicare is accepted here in TV so that is virtually everywhere.
I certainly agree with you, the combination of Medicare and TFL is probably the best health insurance available. I could not be more pleased. Now if only we could get dental coverage that worked as well!
