Hi Joythumper,

You should find out more about it, but from what I've seen it's not suitable for the D7...



TRICARE Prime Overseas:

- is a managed care option in overseas areas near US military hospitals and clinics. For example, in Portugal, this applies to Lages US Air Base in the Azores islands.

- is available聽to聽active duty service members and their command-sponsored family members living together in non-remote overseas locations. Retired service members聽and their families聽can't enroll.

You will need to purchase a聽Travel Insurance with Health Coverage for one year. This health insurance must be part of the documentation for D7 visa to be submitted to the Portuguese Consulate in USA.

(post #9, this is for non EU countries)

The one my mom has is Tricare for life.聽 It says it is good for all overseas locations. So again, I鈥檓 unsure.

When I look up providers for Tricare for life it does show several in Lisbon.

I had already noticed that. But it probably has to do with NATO/OTAN base in Carcavelos/Oeiras, near Lisbon:

Two of the hospitals that appear on that search list as Tricare Providers are these:




Get in touch with them and put your questions...

Ok thanks

@Joythumper Hello, I was hoping you heard or found more information about this. Any such luck?

Thank you,

Hello,

I successfully used Tricare Coverage Letter for my D7 visa application in November 2022 and am happily in Portugal now. Below is information that may be of help to you.

鈥淭hank You for contacting the TRICARE Overseas Area Office Eurasia-Africa.

When beneficiaries are traveling or applying for residency they usually request a signed TRICARE Coverage Letter from our office for their record or meet the countries requirement to prove they have medical insurance.

Coverage letter request for Eurasia-Africa can be sent to the following mailbox usarmy.sembach.medcom-rhc-e.mbx.teoweb-tao-ea@health.mil with the following information:

Sponsors Social/DoD ID or Beneficiary DoD ID/Benefits Number:

Name of Individual/s requiring a coverage letter:

Country visiting or country residing/applying to reside.鈥�

the link is still under review, but it is @health.mil.

I am using Tricare Select Overseas (retired) now that I am in Portugal, but also obtained a health insurance policy in Portugal for my residency submission to the SEF. I was advised to also obtain the Portugal policy to avoid any potential issues with the residency application.

@lucerochris46 Please feel free to message me the link.聽 Thanks!

Understood, thank you for the information!

Congratulations on your "PCS" and good luck!

Respectfully,

Bruce
