  Re: Advice on Tricare/Army Hospitals, Using Midwives? Reply Contact I would really recommend finding a private OB for your prenatal care and birthing. You may have to go see your primary care provider for a referral. It depends if you are tricare prime or standard. A civilian hospital will give you the more relaxed environment you are looking for and you'll have more freedom to pick your doctor if you go private. Tricare should still cover 100%. If you have any more questions or need anything let me know. poc1plt110mp@yahoo.com Brandy
