Does TRICARE cover allergy testing and shots?

Direct answer: Allergy testing and treatment can be covered when they are medically necessary. Your plan may require a referral before the visit or the shots.

Applies to: All TRICARE plans · All regions

Details

Ask the clinic whether they are a network provider, and ask your contractor whether this test needs authorization. Pharmacy rules apply if the treatment is a prescription rather than an in-office shot.

What to do next

Confirm this with your Primary Care Manager or regional contractor before scheduling — rules can vary by region and by service.
