Which route should I use?

  1. Identify your TRICARE region first, West, East, or Overseas, they route completely differently.
  2. West Region: fax your completed DD2642 to 877-989-0070.
  3. East Region or Overseas: don't search for a general claims fax, use the Humana Military portal or the International SOS portal instead.

Several other government and public benefits pages in our directory follow a similar pattern. Our directory also covers sending a fax to Veterans Affairs, MassHealth's fax number, and the CHAMPVA fax page, each with its own scope and confirmed sources.
