TRICARE is medical health insurance that's provided to people in the armed forces of the United States. Drug and alcohol use inside the military is much more common than one would think, and the need to provide rehab to these individuals is an important priority. TRICARE covers numerous rehabilitation services to deal with alcohol and drug dependence such as detox services, along with treatment in outpatient, partial hospitalization and inpatient settings. People with TRICARE will obviously need to get a prior approval before taking part in any sort of rehabilitation service, which is often arranged using a regional TRICARE representative. If an inpatient center is the preferred rehabilitation choice, TRICARE covers twenty-one days or one inpatient stay in this program per benefit period which is every 365 days. There are particular limits as to 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 counselling which can be very helpful, as it can certainly help include family members in the healing and process of recovery. No member of the military should struggle with this battle alone, and there are professional rehabilitation counselors standing by to help you today.
