TRICARE Standard
Taxonomy Code: NS-8000.9000-850
TRICARE Standard, formerly known as CHAMPUS, provides heath care benefits for active duty members of the uniformed services including the Coast Guard, NOAA and the Public Health Service; qualified family members; retirees and their family members; and the spouses and children of deceased active duty and retired personnel. The program is one of three TRICARE options and helps to pay the costs of inpatient, outpatient and emergency medical services obtained from civilian sources. Beneficiaries pay an annual deductible and a share of the costs and may select the authorized civilian health care provider of their choice. There is no enrollment required for families. TRICARE is a regional managed care program administered by the Department of Defense (DoD) Health Affairs Office in collaboration with civilian contractors.
