Recredentialing

Not published by the payer

The West region contractor is TriWest Healthcare Alliance, which took over January 1, 2025, when Arkansas, Illinois, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas, and Wisconsin also moved from East to West. TRICARE is two tier: first get TRICARE certified (authorized) by your regional contractor, a federal step required in each state of service, which lets you treat Select, Reserve Select, and TRICARE for Life beneficiaries as a non network provider. Seeing Prime patients and being listed requires the second step, signing a network contract, which adds credentialing.

Behavioral health routing: Behavioral providers follow the same certify then contract path. ABA runs through a separate Autism Care Corporate Service Provider application.

The stall to avoid: Certification is not network participation. Many providers stop at authorized status and wonder why they are not in the directory: the network contract is a separate ask, and network intake can be closed for some specialties while open for behavioral health.

From PayerReady's payer enrollment research, built from the payer's own provider manuals and enrollment pages. Payer processes change; when a fact is not published by the payer, we say so rather than guess.
