Everything You Need to Know About TRICARE East Enrollment

TRICARE East credentialing is managed by Humana Military. We handle the full process so you can serve military beneficiaries.

What Is TRICARE East Credentialing?

To join the TRICARE East network, a healthcare provider must be certified and credentialed through Humana Military, the region's contractor, before they can bill TRICARE for services. Providers begin by confirming eligibility and gathering key documentation — including an active state license, NPI, malpractice insurance, Tax ID (EIN), and any required DEA registration — then submit through Humana Military's provider self-service portal, often using a current CAQH ProView profile.

How Long Does It Take?

The process usually takes about 60–90 days from complete submission to final approval. Timelines depend on documentation completeness and Humana Military's processing queue. We submit applications as quickly as possible and follow up proactively to push for timely processing. Our experience with Humana Military's specific requirements and portal helps us avoid the common issues that cause delays.

Humana Military Portal + CAQH

TRICARE East credentialing uses Humana Military's provider self-service portal, often supported by a CAQH ProView profile. The credentialing review includes verifying licensure, education, work history, and other credentials against primary sources. We handle the entire portal submission — setting up your CAQH profile, completing the Humana Military application, and ensuring both systems have consistent, accurate information.

In-Network Contract Execution

Once credentialed, providers must also have a fully executed contract with Humana Military before being considered in-network TRICARE East providers. We support the entire contracting process — ensuring all terms are understood, coordinating signatures, and confirming your contract is fully executed so you can begin providing care to military beneficiaries under negotiated TRICARE rates.
