FRAUD NOTICE - READ CAREFULLY
Federal Laws (18 U.S.C. 287 and 1001) provide criminal penalties for knowingly submitting or making any false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or claim in any
matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency of the United States. Examples of fraud include, but are not limited to, situations in which: 1) ineligible
persons knowingly use an unauthorized Identification Card in filing a TRICARE/CHAMPUS claim; 2) providers submit claims for treatment, supplies, or
equipment not rendered to, or used for TRICARE DoD/CHAMPUS beneficiaries; 3) a participating provider bills the beneficiary/patient (or sponsor) for amounts
over the TRICARE/CHAMPUS-determined allowable charge; or, 4) a beneficiary/patient (or sponsor) fails to disclose other medical benefits or health insurance
coverage.
IMPORTANT - READ CAREFULLY
Use this form if your provider does not file a claim for you. If you receive care overseas, you can register on the secure claims portal to file your overseas claim
online at www.tricare-overseas.com/beneficiaries/claims/claims-portal-login.

2. Date of each service;
3. Place of each service;

5. Charge for each service;
6. The diagnosis should be included on the bill. If not, make sure that you have completed block 8a on the form.

each drug; the NDC for each drug if available; the prescription number of each drug; the name and address of the pharmacy; and, the name and address of
the prescribing physician. Billing statements showing only total charges, canceled checks, or cash register and similar type receipts are not acceptable as
itemized statements, unless the receipt provides detailed information required above.

date of discharge for inpatient care. The timely filing deadline for overseas claims is three years from the date of service. If a claim is returned for additional
information, you must resubmit the claim within the timely filing deadline, or within 90 days of the notice - whichever date is later.

service (street number, street name, apartment number, city, state, ZIP Code).
Do not use a Post Office Box Number except for Rural Routes and numbers.
Do not use an APO/FPO address unless the patient was actually residing
overseas when care was provided.
4. Check the box to indicate patient's relationship to sponsor. If "Other" is
checked, indicate how related to the sponsor; e.g., parent.
5. Enter patient's date of birth (YYYYMMDD).
6. Check the box for either male or female (patient).
7. Check box to indicate if patient's condition is accident related, work related

DD FORM 2642, DRAFT 20210813

11. By law, you must report if the patient is covered by any other health insurance to
include health coverage available through other family members. If the patient has
supplemental TRICARE/CHAMPUS insurance, do not report. You must, however,
report Medicare supplemental coverage. Block 11 allows space to report two
insurance coverages. If there are additional insurances, report the information as
required by Block 11 on a separate sheet of paper and attach to the claim.
NOTE: All other health insurances except Medicaid and TRICARE/CHAMPUS
supplemental plans must pay before TRICARE/CHAMPUS will pay. With the
exception of Medicaid and CHAMPUS supplemental plans, you must first submit the
claim to the other health insurer and after that insurance has determined their
payment, attach the other insurance Explanation of Benefits (EOB) or work sheet to
this claim. The claims processor cannot process claims until you provide the other
health insurance information.
12. The patient or other authorized person must sign the claim. If the patient is
under 18 years old, either parent may sign unless the services are confidential and
then the patient should sign the claim. If the patient is 18 years or older, but cannot
sign the claim, the person who signs must be either the legal guardian, or in the
absence of a legal guardian, a spouse or parent of the patient. If other than the
patient, the signer should print or type his/her name in Block 12a. and sign the claim.
Attach a statement to the claim giving the signer's full name and address,
relationship to the patient and the reason the patient is unable to sign. Include
documentation of the signer's appointment as legal guardian, or provide your
statement that no legal guardian has been appointed. If a power of attorney has
been issued, provide a copy.
13. If this is a claim for care received overseas, indicate if you want payment in US
currency.
