what dental programs does tricare administer
The TRICARE Retiree Dental Program (TRDP) was authorized by Congress to provide a basic dental program for Uniformed Services retirees and their family members. Further legislation has allowed the program to be enhanced to include more comprehensive coverage. Under contract with the U.S. Department of Defense, the Federal Services division of Delta Dental Plan administers the TRDP. The TRDP is a voluntary dental benefits program with enrollee-paid premiums.
