Run, don't walk, to TRICARE Prime if you are eligible.
I was referring to how difficult it can be to find a PCM and in some areas Prime folks aren't as welcome. As my wife's Dr put it - Welfare pays more than Tricare. Generally speaking there are two types that take it 1) new/starting out or 2)patriotic. Luckily I live in an area with lots of the latter types.

I consider myself blessed beyond measure to have the choice.
