MMSO serves the following population:

Service members receiving treatment for line of duty conditions will not show as eligible for care in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS). To verify eligibility, contact the service member's unit administrator or medical representative. All claims for line of duty medical care should be submitted to the Managed Care Support Contractor serving the area in which the member lives.

The TRICARE Remote Dental Program previously administered by MMSO has been transitioned to the new Active Duty Dental Program (ADDP) administered by United Concordia Companies, Inc. (United Concordia).

All pre-authorization requests and dental care claims must be submitted to United Concordia. Questions regarding dental care should be directed to United Concordia at 1-866-984-ADDP (1-866-984-2337) or http://www.addp-ucci.com.
