In what way can beneficiaries update their TRICARE information?

Beneficiaries can update their TRICARE information through the TRICARE website or the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS). This is the most accessible and convenient method, as it allows individuals to make changes online at any time, avoiding the limitations of operating hours associated with phone calls or in-person visits. The online platforms are designed to facilitate easy updates for personal information, such as address changes, phone numbers, and eligibility status, ensuring that TRICARE records are current and accurate.

The other methods mentioned, such as only phone calls or exclusively using the mobile app, do not provide the comprehensive capability for updating all necessary information. In-person updates at regional offices can also be less efficient compared to online resources, which allow beneficiaries to manage their information without needing to travel or wait for appointments. Thus, the combination of the TRICARE website and DEERS offers the most effective and flexible way for beneficiaries to maintain their information.
