More fuckwittery from Tricare

sethrakJack's cry has been sounding hoarse and just plain off the last two days. He's also been sneezing, albeit without producing mucus or anything being visible in his nose. Today I decided he needed to be seen by a pediatrician, and called the Tricare appt. line to arrange it.
The Tricare lady said he'd been assigned to Fort Eustis' Pediatrics Clinic.
::beats head into desk::
Why in the name of pendantic military regs did Tricare assign him to the Army clinic, when the Air Force clinic is closer and his brother's already assigned there?! I thought Tricare was all about assigning people as close to their residence as possible! Hell, that's why they wanted to have Jack go to the satellite clinic in base housing for his two week appt., before we explained to them that no, he was Prime, not Standard, and therefore rated the base hospital's clinic.
It's going to be a pain in the ass to get there. Jefferson Ave.'s nearly as busy as the freeway, but less prone to traffic stopping accidents, so I'm taking that instead. But I have no choice; I don't like the sound of his cry, and it being Friday, there's not enough time for Dav to perform a panda-smash on Tricare before the weekend. His appt's for 1:20 this afternoon.
I am SO getting secondary insurance when the boys are in school and I go back to work...
