Yes... You need to have referral from your PCM. Your medical records should support your unsuccessful attempts,

I was sleeved in July. I had to pay co pay for the psych appt, and $25 for the surgery only! Feeling blessed!!!

Civilian doctor. I live too far from a base. You sure you want to have to pay $1000???? What state are you in? (If you don't mind sharing.)

Let me update on my Tricare /Sleeve journey. I was APPROVED for the sleeve thru Tricare. I had to follow my surgeon's orders. I did NOT have to have 6 month diet, did NOT have to have 2 wk liquid diet prior, did not have to have sleep study (doctor's choice as I do not have sleep apnea). I did need to have the psych evaluation done. I have surgery July 8 -- in 2 days!!!

I am NOT an expert on Tricare at all - please talk to someone who is. BUT... If you drop from Prime to Standard... Won't you have to reach a deductible and pay a percentage???? With Prime, I'm going to have to pay about $25 dollars total. If you change, I think it will cost you $$$$$$.

I'm dealing with Tricare North also. I have my first appointment with the surgeon, NUT, psych, etc at the end of March. I sure hope Tricare North does not require 6 months of pre-surgery dieting!!! I want it done NOW. I did have a run-around finding a surgeon that was Tricare approved. Any more experience w/ Tricare North? Thanks
