TRICARE is health insurance which is offered to individuals in the military of the United States. Drug abuse within the military is much more common than one would imagine, and the need to provide rehabilitation to these individuals is a priority. TRICARE covers a variety of rehab services to cope with alcohol and drug dependence like detoxification services, as well as treatment in outpatient, partial hospitalization and inpatient settings. People with TRICARE will of course be required to get a prior approval before taking part in any type of treatment service, which is often arranged using their regional TRICARE representative. If an inpatient center will be the favored rehabilitation choice, TRICARE will cover a three week period or one inpatient stay in that program per benefit period which is every 12 months. There are specific limits as to the length of time a TRICARE member can remain in an inpatient facility that accepts TRICARE, and there is typically a 30 to 45 day window that's covered. TRICARE also covers family counselling that may be very helpful, as it can help include loved ones in the healing and process of recovery. No member of the military should struggle with this battle alone, and there are skilled rehab counselors ready to assist you today.
