System's managed care program, has been in operation in South Carolina since 1996. In partnership with the Humana Military Healthcare Services and Blue Cross/Blue Shield of South Carolina, a large, robust network of civilian providers has been established in the Columbia metropolitan area. TRICARE offers three options for eligible beneficiaries: Prime, Extra and Standard. TRICARE Standard, formerly known as CHAMPUS, offers beneficiaries the widest choice of providers and facilities but also has the highest cost-sharing requirements. Active-duty family members, retirees and retiree family members are encouraged to enroll in TRICARE Prime. TRICARE Prime enrolled beneficiaries have priority for care within the Military Treatment Facility. Active-duty service members assigned to Fort Jackson are required to in-process through the TRICARE Service Center to transfer their Prime enrollment and their Primary Care Manager to Moncrief Army Community Hospital. For more information, please contact the staff at the TRICARE Service Center in the hospital or call (800) 444-5445.
