A change of address may mean new TRICARE health options

Moving may change the TRICARE health care options available to you and your family. A change of address, such as moving to a new country, city, region, or ZIP+4 code is a TRICARE Qualifying Life Event (QLE). This QLE means you have 90 days from the date of your address change to enroll in or change your TRICARE Prime or TRICARE Select health plan based on your eligibility or plan availability in the new location.

Moving doesn’t change your TRICARE eligibility. But it may change the TRICARE health care options available to you and your family

What is a TRICARE Qualifying Life Event?

Article

Every year during TRICARE Open Season, you can enroll in or change your TRICARE Prime or TRICARE Select health plan. Outside of TRICARE Open Season, you can only enroll in or make changes to your TRICARE Prime (including the US Family Health Plan) or TRICARE Select plan following a Qualifying Life Event (QLE). A QLE is a certain change in your life, such as marriage, birth of a child, change of address, or retirement from active duty. Different TRICARE health plan options may be available to you and your family members after a QLE. (U.S. Navy photo by Ensign Britney Duesler)

Life changes are inevitable, when they occur, your TRICARE health options may change too
