Trying to think if I should get my stuff together (since I have completed all pre-op requirements) and have the clinic submit my items for Tricare approval (without the 6 month dr visits completed). (I have done 2 of the 4 PCD visits).. As Tricare stated they did not need me to wait 6 months..but clinic is saying that Tricare does..

any thoughts...

Tricare would not approve mine until all my 6 month classes were complete.. My dr. put in the request for me at month 4 and they wouldn't approve until all 6 month classes were done... You might be lucky, I find with tricare sometimes it's just who you get.. I got approve for a the sleep study and the day it came to me having it done, tricare cancelled it. If I hadn't of called in for another reason and checked, I would have been stuck with a bill, because the hospital never got the cancellation until 3 day's after the study.. Be care!! and get refer # and ppl you are speaking too...

Would definitely wait tri care will not approve unless you have the 6 months. This is the exact same thing that happened to me and that created a bunch of extra stress and it prolonged it for me. Hope everything works out for u
