Shownotes

In this episode of the Liberty Call Podcast, I sit down with John Letaw, better known as “The TRICARE Guy.” John has helped thousands of veterans understand TRICARE, especially those living overseas — and he’s written three books on the topic, making him one of the most trusted voices in the military healthcare community.

We dive into:

  1. How TRICARE Select really works for retirees
  2. Why TRICARE overseas is misunderstood
  3. The biggest mistakes retirees make
  4. How the catastrophic cap protects you
  5. What healthcare looks like in places like Thailand and the Philippines
  6. Pharmacy reimbursement and medical claims abroad
  7. The financial traps nobody warns retirees about
  8. How to prepare BEFORE you retire to avoid losing coverage

Whether you’re close to retirement, moving overseas, or just want to understand your healthcare benefits, this episode will save you money and stress.
