This involves a service-connected back surgery that my husband chose to have performed in a civilian hospital locally. I would like to hear of anyone's experiences suing Tricare for first committing to a hospital or physician to pay for services, and then reneging on that commitment. Were you successful, did they pay the charges, plus any attorney and court costs? Who was your attorney?
I can briefly discuss details, if needed. Tricare authorized the surgery with both me and the hospital, and then reneged after the surgery, saying its rep made an error, for which Tricare is not responsible, and they're now refusing to pay. We're looking at suing Humana Military Health Services as the administrator of the DOD sponsored Tricare medical insurance plan.
I initially posted this elsewhere, and apologize for putting it here, but this is the area where the board receives the most traffic, and I'm dealing with a time deadline. Thank you for your patience, and any information you can give me.
