TRICARE is health insurance that is offered to people in the military of the United States. Drug abuse within the military is more common than one would assume, and the necessity to provide treatment to these individuals is a priority. TRICARE covers many different rehabilitation services to address alcohol and drug dependence including detox services, along with treatment in outpatient, partial hospitalization and inpatient facilities. People with TRICARE will of course need to have a prior approval before partaking in any type of rehab service, which is often organized with their regional TRICARE representative. If an inpatient program could be the favored rehab option, TRICARE covers 21 days or one inpatient stay in this program per benefit period which is every 365 days. There are particular limits about how much time 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 may be very helpful, as it may help include family members in the healing and recovery process. No person in the military should struggle with this battle alone, and there are skilled treatment counselors standing by to help you today.
