What is the Army Family Action Plan
|
The Army Family Action Plan (AFAP) is input from the people of the Army-to-Army leadership. It's a process that lets soldiers and families say what's working, and what isn't - AND what they think will fix it. It alerts commanders and Army leaders to areas of concern that need their attention, and it gives them the opportunity to quickly put plans into place to work toward resolving the issues.
AFAP was the brainchild of Army spouses. Each AFAP success story originated as an idea that someone decided to pursue. The Army is the only branch of DOD that has such a program. Almost 500 issues have entered the AFAP in its 17-year history. Many AFAP improvements impact quality of life for all services. AFAP is year-round - issues are continually being monitored and worked toward resolution...at local levels, MACOMs, and HQDA. |

CHAMPUS / TRICARE
|
TRICARE is the Department of Defense’s health care program – or the military’s equivalent of a medical insurance provider. Active Duty Service Member’s are automatically enrolled in the program and receive full medical benefits through a primary care provider at their local military facility. Active duty family members and retirees under the age of 65 are also eligible for medical coverage (your family members are eligible from the first day you enter the Army). Sponsors must enroll their family members in the program through the local Health Benefits Advisor. (This is an important step – you need to ensure that you have enrolled your family in order for them to receive medical care.)
There are three TRICARE programs to choose from. The most common option is TRICARE Prime. Active duty soldiers are automatically enrolled in TRICARE Prime (they have no choice), and most sponsors choose this program for their families also. TRICARE Prime is similar to an HMO (Health Maintenance Organization). You and your family members are assigned to a Primary Care Manager (usually in the closest military facility) who will take care of most of your medical needs. He or she will refer you to a specialist if necessary. The great advantage of TRICARE Prime is that almost all of your medical expenses are paid for. However, you must see your Primary Care Manager first for all health care problems. The second option is TRICARE Standard. With TRICARE standard you can choose your own civilian doctor. However, you must pay a yearly deductible (approximately $100 per person) as well as 20% of all medical bills. The final option is TRICARE Extra. Under this plan, you may select from a list of TRICARE-participating civilian doctors. You are responsible for 15% of all medical expenses. |
