Question: 1 / 400

Which TRICARE Pharmacy Program option incurs a 50 percent point-of-service cost-share for TRICARE Prime enrollees?

Express Scripts

Network pharmacies

Non-network pharmacies

The option that incurs a 50 percent point-of-service cost-share for TRICARE Prime enrollees is the non-network pharmacies choice. When TRICARE Prime enrollees go to a non-network pharmacy, they face a higher cost-sharing structure compared to using network pharmacies or mail order services. This is designed to encourage enrollees to utilize the more cost-effective network pharmacies where the costs are lower and better coordinated within the TRICARE system. Utilizing non-network pharmacies often results in significantly higher out-of-pocket costs, which is reflected in the 50 percent cost-share. In contrast, network pharmacies and mail order services typically provide lower co-pays, making them more economical options for beneficiaries.
