HNFS is currently the West Region Managed Care Support Contractor for TRICARE, the military health system program for uniformed service members, retirees, and their families worldwide. The Buckley PSA Pilot will dramatically shift TRICARE's current fee-for-service reimbursement model to value-based payment agreements, which are not an option in the current TRICARE model. By focusing on value and data-driven patient care management, HNFS will demonstrate improved health outcomes, increased beneficiary and provider satisfaction while maintaining budget certainty. HNFS' Buckley PSA Pilot is expected to run through December 31, 2022.
