FALLS CHURCH, Va. –
Note: As of Aug. 25, the tricare.mil usability study has enough participants and the inbox is no longer accepting emails. Thank you for your interest.
Have you recently used tricare.mil to search for TRICARE benefit information? Do you have suggestions about how to improve content on the website? Are you interested in shaping the future of TRICARE’s web presence?
The Defense Health Agency Usability Lab is looking for participants for a tricare.mil usability study. The DHA Usability Lab will hold several studies to get feedback on the website.
During these sessions, usability study leaders will ask participants to test out specific scenarios. Participants will have the chance to share their thoughts and feedback on the website’s:
- Content
- Navigation
- Visuals
- Layout
All studies meet remotely between Aug. 25 and Sept. 5. Each session lasts for about one hour.
The DHA Usability Lab is looking for participants from across different health plans, ages, locations, and life experiences. To participate, you must:
- Be a current TRICARE beneficiary
- Be at least 18 years old
- Have a computer or mobile device to access tricare.mil and Microsoft Teams (no Microsoft Teams account required)
- Have a stable internet connection and the ability to share your screen
- Have a working microphone
- Be available on weekdays between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. ET
You don’t need to have a current Common Access Card or Uniformed Services ID card to participate. You’ll only need to use the live version of
tricare.mil.
What to expect
DHA won’t publicly share the names or information of study participants. But you’ll be asked to share your thoughts aloud with other participants on the call. The call may be recorded.
Once the study is over, the DHA Usability Lab and TRICARE communications team will analyze the results. They’ll then use this data to help shape efforts to update and redesign different parts of tricare.mil. This will enable the website to better serve military families as they navigate getting care and using their TRICARE benefit.
How to register
Note: As of Aug. 25, the usability study has reached capacity and is no longer accepting new registrants.
