I have Tricare Prime through my husband who is retired Air Force. We live just north of Dallas. I got a referral to the Surgeon on 5/15. Attended the LapBand Seminar at the Surgeons Office on 5/21, scheduled my consultation for today (5/29). Authorization was submitted to Tricare Prime today (5/29) by the Coordinator. Checked the Humana Military website to find out the status of the referral for the Psych Consult and my surgery has already been approved. All within two hours. I'm extremely impressed with the timing.
Does anyone know if Tricare Prime will pay for the nutritionist? I am assuming it will pay for the Psych.
