Official - Adjective. 1  As an adjective, official often, but not always, means pertaining to the government, as state employee or having state recognition, or analogous to governance or to a formal (especially legally regulated) proceeding as opposed to informal business.
Tricare (styled TRICARE), formerly known as the Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services (CHAMPUS), is a health care program of the United States Department of Defense Military Health System.
Myth #8: TRICARE For Life will pay for long-term nursing care services, so I won't need long-term care insurance. Reality: TFL does not cover long-term custodial care. Medicare and TRICARE cover certain medically-necessary skilled nursing care either in a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) or at home.
