In support of the DHA IPEB, the TCRS contractor will audit compliance and assess the accuracy of the claims processing for the following TRICARE purchased care contracts: the Managed Care Support Contracts (MCSCs), TRICARE Medicare Eligible Program (TMEP), TRICARE Pharmacy (TPHARM) Program, TRICARE Overseas Program (TOP) and the Active Duty Dental Program (ADDP).
