When to enroll
You can enroll in Johns Hopkins US Family Health Plan during TRICARE’s® Open Season. This annual enrollment period occurs each fall, beginning on the Monday of the second full week of November to the Tuesday of the second full week in December.
You may be eligible to enroll in Johns Hopkins USFHP outside of Open Season if:
- You experienced a Qualifying Life Event. These events include a change in military status or a change in your family. You have 90 days from the date of your QLE to enroll.
- Current members who experienced a change in status (i.e. retired from active duty) within the past 12 months can re-enroll and be reinstated.
- You are currently enrolled in TRICARE Prime®
Before you enroll, ensure DEERS information is current. Call 1-800-538-9552 or visit your nearest Military Pass & ID Office.
