Become a TRICARE Provider
Thank you for your interest in caring for military service members, retirees and their families. As we transition out from our current TRICARE West Region contract, please note that Health Net Federal Services, LLC (HNFS) is no longer accepting new provider contracts.
We are proud to continue partnering with our provider network to serve military families throughout the remainder of our TRICARE contract.
For information about adding providers to existing network provider groups, please see below.
Note: Providers still interested in supporting our military can become a non-network provider. TRICARE-authorized providers must meet specific licensing and certification requirements and be certified by TRICARE to provide care under the TRICARE program.
Additions to Existing Network Provider Groups
HNFS is currently accepting network applications for the following:
All other provider types:
- For provider groups who are directly credentialed by HNFS: With exception to the Autism Care Demonstration and Childbirth and Breastfeeding Support Demonstration, we are no longer accepting new practitioner additions or new facility locations.
Note: While we recommend using providers/locations currently in our network, providers may submit standard certification forms as needed for claims payment. Find these in the “Non-Network Providers” section of our Forms page.
- For provider groups who have a delegated credentialing agreement: We will continue to accept new practitioner additions submitted to us on rosters through Dec. 31, 2024.
