For beneficiaries with specific mental or physical disabilities, the TRICARE Extended Care Health Option (ECHO) provides financial assistance for an integrated set of services and supplies not available through the basic TRICARE program.
TRICARE ECHO does not replace benefits from other TRICARE programs; it offers supplemental benefits to the eligible beneficiary’s TRICARE program.
Eligibility for the ECHO program is limited to beneficiaries who are:
- active duty family members (including family members of activated National Guard or Reserve members)
- residing in the continental United States or one of the U.S. territories
- qualified through ECHO case managers in each TRICARE region
- enrolled in the Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) through their sponsor’s service branch
Learn more by downloading the
TRICARE ECHO Benefit Flyer or by contacting your ECHO
case manager.
