Well - I had a call from California yesterday stating that since Tricare does not cover the surgery, they will not cover the fills either. I had my band placed end of Jan and my first fill yesterday....all out of pocket. But still trying to get Tricare to get with the program like all the other insurances. I believe Tricare is the last holdout. Good luck and let me know what happens...at least it is nice to know that there are two fighting this battle!
