For TRICARE providers
Federal Law (5 U.S.C. 5536) prohibits medical personnel, who are Active Duty Service Members (ADSM) or civilian employees of the
government, compensation above their normal pay and allowances for medical care rendered. This prohibition applies to TRICARE
benefits whether the claim for reimbursement is filed by the individual who provided the care, the facility in which the care was
rendered, or by the sponsor/beneficiary. Claims for TRICARE benefits will be denied in any situation where either a uniform member
or civilian employee of the uniform services has the opportunity to exert, directly or indirectly, any influence on the referral of TRICARE
beneficiaries to one or more providers on a selective basis.
