TRICARE is health care insurance which is provided to people in the military of the United States. Drug abuse inside the military is more common than one would assume, and the necessity to provide rehabilitation to these individuals is an important priority. TRICARE covers a variety of rehabilitation services to address alcohol and drug dependence such as detoxification services, along with rehab in outpatient, partial hospitalization and inpatient programs. People with TRICARE will naturally need to get a prior authorization before taking part in any type of treatment service, that may be organized with their regional TRICARE liaison. If an inpatient facility is the favored rehabilitation option, TRICARE will cover 21 days or one inpatient stay in this particular program per benefit period which is every 365 days. There are specific limits regarding just how long a TRICARE member can stay in the inpatient center that accepts TRICARE, and there is typically a 30 to 45 day window that's covered. TRICARE also covers family treatment which is often very beneficial, as it can certainly help include loved ones in the healing and process of recovery. No person in the military should struggle with this battle alone, and there are professional treatment counselors waiting to help you today.
