TRICARE is health care insurance that's offered to individuals in the military of the United States. Drug abuse inside the military is much more common than one would think, and the necessity to provide rehab to these individuals is a priority. TRICARE covers many different rehab services to handle drug and alcohol dependence such as detox services, as well as rehabilitation in outpatient, partial hospitalization and inpatient programs. People who have TRICARE will naturally be required to get a prior authorization before taking part in any kind of rehab service, that may be arranged using their regional TRICARE representative. If an inpatient program is the favored rehabilitation option, TRICARE will cover twenty-one days or one inpatient stay in that facility per benefit period which is every 12 months. There are certain limits regarding how much time a TRICARE member can stay in an inpatient facility that accepts TRICARE, and there's typically a 30 to 45 day window that's covered. TRICARE also covers family therapy which is often very helpful, as it can help include family members in the healing and process of recovery. No person in the military should struggle with this battle alone, and there are skilled treatment counselors ready to help you today.
