Currently our plans would be for me to use TRICARE as a secondary coverage to MEDICARE when I take retirement at 65. However, if my wife is not yet 65 at that time, does she still use Tricare as the primary coverage? Currently we use Tricare as a primary with a supplemental insurance which I pay for.
Something new for VA recipients that are NOT service connected Medicare will no longer cover this group of veterans, only Tri Care on the back end paying 20% the part that Medicare was paying (80%) will no longer exist, the 1 st 80% will be out of pocket costs for the veteran that does not have a service connected disability.
