PURPOSE:                To collect information from Military Health System beneficiaries in order to determine their eligibility for coverage under the TRICARE Program; to issue payment upon establishment of eligibility; to determine that the service/supplies received are authorized by law; and to check or correct records with respect to your Medicare and/or Other Health Insurance (OHI) coverage.

 

ROUTINE USES:     Any protected health information (PHI) in your records may be used and disclosed generally as permitted by the HIPAA Privacy Rule (45 CFR Parts 160 and 164), as implemented within DoD.  Permitted uses and disclosures of PHI include, but are not limited to, treatment, payment, and healthcare operations.
