Referral Information

If you’re enrolled in a TRICARE PRIME plan, at some point you may need specialty care that your primary care manager (PCM) can’t provide.  In that case, he or she may refer you to a specialty provider.  You may need a referral and pre-authorization from your PCM to seek care from a specialty provider, depending on your TRICARE health plan.
