Where do you live?
U.S. or U.S. Territories
TRICARE Pharmacy Home Delivery will ship to any address in the U.S. or U.S. territories, including APO/FPO addresses.
All Other Overseas Areas
- You must use your APO/FPO address.
- Use the embassy address if you’re assigned to an embassy and don’t have an APO/FPO address.
- You can’t use private foreign addresses.
- Medications requiring refrigerated packaging or that have pressurized dispensing devices won’t be shipped to APO/FPO/DPO addresses.
- Home delivery isn’t available in Germany, Norway, and Saudi Arabia.
- If you don’t qualify for home delivery, you’ll need to get your medication from a retail pharmacy and submit a medical claim with the overseas contractor for reimbursement.
Note: Home delivery to APO/FPO addresses is subject to local customs laws. Prescription drugs sent to APO/FPO addresses may be seized by customs authorities. If your prescription drugs are seized, contact Express Scripts at 877-363-1303. Or, look up your local Express Scripts toll-free number to find out other ways to get your prescription filled.
Certain Maintenance DrugsAny drug you take regularly for a chronic condition.
All beneficiaries except active duty service members must refill certain brand-name maintenance drugs through home delivery or at a military pharmacy.
If you fill your certain maintenance drug at a network pharmacy:
- One time: You’ll get a letter from Express Scripts telling you that you need to switch.
- Two times: You’ll get another letter from Express Scripts about switching.
- Three times: You’re responsible to pay 100% of the cost.
This rule doesn’t apply if you live outside of the U.S. or U.S. territories.
