'Worm' Immobilizes Tricare Website |
|||
|
With Tricare for Life taking effect on October 1 for Medicare-eligible Military retirees who have Medicare Part B, answers to questions about the program are supposed to be on tap at the Tricare Website (http://www.tricare.osd.mil). But the threat of the "Code Red Worm" has shut down the site for those who use commercial Internet Service Providers. The block was originally set on August 1 for all Defense Information Systems Agency gateways. It was partially lifted on August 2 but was imposed again on August 7. Another method to reach TFL is by phone at 1-888-DoD-Life. The Tricare Senior Pharmacy service (also at the blocked Website) can be reached at 1-877-DoD-Med. |
