    TIPS FROM DR. PROULX

    You are your own advocate to get the care you need. Your PCM doesn't always know exactly what you need unless you speak their language, so here are a few tips to move the process along or skip it entirely! 

    1. When you go to your PCM for something, write down the top 3 things you want to achieve from the appointment. You are in control of the outcome.

    2. Research the medical term of what you think is going on. If you speak their language, they won't have to guess what is going on. 

    3. If you believe you need to see a specialist, you don't necessarily have to see a PCM. Contact the specialist you want (make sure they take TriCare) and have their staff get the referral from your PCM. Its their job!
