TRICARE For Life duplicate remittance advice on May 7, 2022
Certain TRICARE for Life providers may have received a duplicate remittance advice dated May 7, 2022. This was inadvertently caused by an attempt to correct an issue that had been discovered. The two remits are exact duplicates and therefore the duplicate file can be disregarded. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
