100 MOCs sign letter to TRICARE
One hundred members of Congress signed a letter of concern sent last week to the Department of Defense in response to recent TRICARE changes that threaten beneficiaries’ access to community pharmacies, especially in rural areas.
Led by Sen. Tom Cotton (AR) and Rep. Buddy Carter (GA) the bipartisan letter asked the DOD for answers about Express Scripts’ stripping local pharmacy access away from TRICARE families.
Outreach to the DOD shouldn’t end yet. For your patients and their caregivers who are experiencing a disruption, please direct them to this NCPA-created resource to take action. You can also print this letter and ask your affected patients to sign and mail it directly to the Defense Health Agency.
