TRICARE Network Pharmacies

TRICARE beneficiaries should contact their local TRICARE network pharmacy to determine if they may schedule an appointment to receive the COVID-19 vaccine as supplies are distributed in their area..

Locate a local TRICARE network pharmacy here.
 

TRICARE Non-Network Pharmacies

TRICARE beneficiaries can receive the COVID-19 vaccine at non-network pharmacies-at no charge-as supplies are distributed in their area. Currently, under the federal response, pharmacies are prohibited from balance billing patients for COVID-19 vaccines.

Note: TRICARE does NOT cover access to other vaccines (e.g., flu, shingles, etc.) at non-network pharmacies; therefore, the preferred option is to utilize a TRICARE network pharmacy for all other covered vaccines.
