Turning 65 is one of the biggest milestones for military retirees and their eligible family members. Between Medicare enrollment, DEERS updates, pharmacy benefits, and understanding how Tricare For Life (TFL) works, it's easy to feel overwhelmed.

It also includes helpful reminders, important contact information, and common situations that may require additional research, such as Medicare Advantage, VA healthcare, employer coverage, and overseas residency.

  • A simple overview of how Tricare For Life works.

  • A timeline of important tasks before turning 65.
