Tricare Prime {south}

[help1977 0]

Hello everyone I am going thru the process right now. So far I have done the 3 months of weigh in's with my PCP. I have went to the Psychologist. And now on Tuesday I go to see the Dietitian. My question is does Tricare pay for the Dietitian and Nutrition? Dr. Weaver's office in Memphis told me I have to pay for that and everything I read online on this web site Tricare will pay for it. I talk to Tricare and they said it's all in how they file it. Well what does that mean and how do I know how they will file it? So on Tuesday they want 350 dollars from me. Thanks:confused:

I'm tricare standard and I just paid my deductible and co pay. I didn't pay the whole price of ANY of the preop stuff.

As long as you have referrals, yes they pay for everything.

My husband is retired military and we have Tricare Prime also. I am having my banding done on base but went downtown to the Psyc visit and Tricare picked up 100%! DO NOT pay that bill yet. Call Tricare again and talk to a manager. We just got a bill from a local hospital for my DH, who was admitted with chest pain, the bill was $52,000, we owed $1500, went to Tricare and they said we owed $25.00! You need to get someone who is incharge. Who submitted your paper for your band???

My PCP got my referral to the surgeon And that is all I have so far I haven't even seen her yet I don't see her until everything is done when I go to the Dietitian she will let me know what else I may need before she can file to Tricare for the surgery
