Using Tricare in the Philippines Saves the US Government Money




From a reader: Currently Tricare pays out in the Philippines just 13% of what would be expected compared to what they pay out per beneficiary around the rest of the world and even after being adjusted for lower costs here. These comparisons come from their own data presented to Congress so it is hard for them to deny that they are denying access to care on a massive scale here. Write your congressman about it and include the figures and Tricare ignores the figures and question in favor of spewing policy after policy. In other words; ask them why the sky is blue and they will come back with a long discussion on cloud formations.
