Baby Boomers urged to get Hepatitis C Screening
People born from 1945-1965 (Baby Boomers) are 5x more likely to have
Hepatitis C.
While anyone can get Hepatitis C, people born during these years are five
times more likely to have Hepatitis C than other adults. That’s why the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends everyone born
from 1945-1965 get tested for Hepatitis C.

The TRICARE Retiree Dental Program Celebrates NCDHM and Is There To Save your
smile, Your health and Your money!
February is National Children’s Dental Health Month (NCDHM) and a great time
to remind families that developing good habits at an early age and scheduling
regular dental visits can help your children and grandchildren get a head
start on a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums. But what about you? Do you see
your dentist at least twice a year for regular checkups? If so, you have an
excellent chance of keeping your teeth and gums healthy for a very long time.
Because your mouth is the gateway to the rest of your body, maintaining good
oral health is important —but even routine dental care can be costly,
sometimes averaging several hundred dollars each year. Fortunately, the
TRICARE Retiree Dental Program (TRDP) can keep you smiling and help you
maintain your overall health, all at an affordable cost.
