  • How CareSource leverages decades of experience in whole-person, community-based care
  • The biggest differences between this demonstration and earlier pilots, including broader provider networks and integrated care teams
  • How enrollment works, why it’s fast and easy, and what beneficiaries can expect after signing up
  • How military families can advocate for expanding choice to other states and regions

With TRICARE Open Season ending on December 9, this episode offers timely, practical information for retirees, families, Guard and Reserve members, and veterans who want more control, choice, and convenience in their healthcare.
