Care Away from Home

When You Travel Outside of Georgia

As a Kaiser Permanente TRICARE Prime option member, you’re covered wherever you go around the world. You can still go to any TRICARE-authorized provider plus you can go to any Kaiser Permanente facility.

Emergency care¹

If you have a medical emergency and are:

in the U.S. – call 911 or go to the nearest hospital.
outside the U.S. – go right to the nearest hospital or place where you can get the medical care you need.

If you’re admitted to a non-Kaiser Permanente hospital, we ask that you or the hospital contact us within 24 hours of admission to enable the coordination of your care.

Urgent care²

You can get urgent care without a referral while traveling outside of GA at:

any TRICARE-authorized urgent care provider.
any military hospital or clinic (if space is available).
the VA (if you are eligible).
a Kaiser Permanente facility that has urgent care or after-hours services.

Kaiser Permanente provides care in many states including all or parts of California, Colorado, Georgia, Hawaii, Maryland, Oregon, Virginia, Washington, and District of Columbia.

Just call us 24/7, toll-free at 833-642-5973 to get nurse advice on the best way, and best location to get the care you need.

Filling an urgent care prescription

If you’re traveling outside of GA and receive urgent care at any of the locations listed above and need medication, you can have the prescription filled where you get care, or at the nearest TRICARE retail network pharmacy.

1 An emergency medical condition is a medical or psychiatric condition that requires immediate medical attention to prevent serious jeopardy to your health.

2 An urgent care need is one that requires prompt medical attention, usually within 24 or 48 hours, but is not an emergency medical condition. Examples include minor injuries, cuts, backaches, earaches, upper-respiratory symptoms, sore throats, frequent or severe coughs, frequent urination or a burning sensation when urinating.
