What is my copayment when a prescription filled in a TRICARE network retail pharmacy is written for less than 30 days or more than 30 days?
Your copayments are not prorated based on the number of days prescribed. If your doctor prescribed a medication for a period of less than 30 days (such as a 10-day course of antibiotics), you pay the full copayment — that is, $3 (formulary generic), $9 (formulary brand name), or $22 (nonformulary drug). If the prescription is for more than 30 days but less than 60 days, you pay a copayment of $6 ($3×2) for a formulary generic, $18 ($9×2) for a formulary brand-name, or $44 ($22×2) for a nonformulary drug at a TRICARE network retail pharmacy.
