Have any of you used USFHP for your health insurance? [View all]

I retired from the Navy in 1999 and have always used TriCare Prime, but I recently moved away from a close base. It looks like USFHP may be a good alternative but would like some feedback. Thanks in advance.

Doesn't Tricare cover care by civilian providers? pinboy3niner May 2015 #1

Yes but only by referral. I need a primary care doc. RGinNJ May 2015 #2

You need a military referral? pinboy3niner May 2015 #3

Not always from the military but TriCare pays so little most civilian docs won't take it. RGinNJ May 2015 #5
