I consider myself blessed beyond measure to have the choice.
I have heard that its difficult to find Tricare providers if you don't live near a big military base. I still live in a military town and have had a very good experience with Tricare. My wife has had a rough couple of years medically, but my out of pocket has been minuscule.
