TRICARE is health care insurance that's provided to people in the military of the United States. Drug abuse inside the military is much more common than one would imagine, and the need to offer rehab to these individuals is an important priority. TRICARE covers a variety of rehabilitation services to handle drug and alcohol dependence including detoxification services, as well as rehab in outpatient, partial hospitalization and inpatient programs. People with TRICARE will naturally need to have a prior approval before partaking in any sort of rehabilitation service, which is often organized with their regional TRICARE liaison. If an inpatient program is the preferred rehab option, TRICARE will cover a three week period or one inpatient stay in such a facility per benefit period which is every 12 months. There are certain limits about how long a TRICARE member can remain in an inpatient facility that accepts TRICARE, and there's typically a 30-45 day window that's covered. TRICARE also covers family therapy which is often very helpful, as it can help include loved ones in the healing and recovery process. No member of the military should fight this battle alone, and there are skilled rehab counselors standing by to help you today.
