TRICARE is a health insurance company specifically for the military. All active-duty, dependents, and retirees of the United States armed forces have TRICARE for their health insurance, dental insurance, prescriptions, and rehabilitation programs. If you need help with drug and alcohol addiction, your TRICARE coverage might be the solution.
Yes, TRICARE does pay for drug rehab, but the degree to which they pay is based on the coverage plan you have. Again, TRICARE covers plans for active duty, retirees, and their families, and each can have different levels of drug rehab coverage. TRICARE specializes in things like detoxification, emergency, and non-emergency inpatient services, as well as outpatient services, partial hospitalization, ongoing therapy, and medications.
You can learn about the specifics of your coverage by contacting TRICARE insurance directly and having them go over your policy coverage. However, this can result in long hold times and a complicated verification process that doesn’t necessarily explain what services are available to you. That is why Prevail Recovery’s staff is here to help.
The requirements for TRICARE drug and alcohol treatment vary and often include prerequisites like not having other mental health issues that are unaddressed. For that reason, you must verify what benefits are included in your TRICARE policy and under what circumstances you can get access to insurance coverage for specific treatment plans because there are so many different rules depending on the method you have. It can be overwhelming whether you are active duty, retired, active duty with a particular security clearance, or working in a specific field. That is why one of the easiest ways to verify what type of drug and alcohol rehab programs are covered with TRICARE outpatient coverage for insurance plans is to let us help.
At Prevail Recovery, we accept TRICARE Insurance, and we are an approved TRICARE rehab facility. We can confidentially investigate what your policy covers with some basic information from you. This is entirely confidential and does not get reported to anyone else. This means if you let us determine the benefits you have under your insurance policy, it won’t jeopardize your security clearance or your career in any way. What’s more, there is no obligation required from you nor any commitment. We can investigate your coverage for yourself or a family member under a given policy and explain what services and treatments are included. There might be situations where you have to pay out-of-pocket for things like a copay or a deductible. We can go over how much that will be based on what treatment is recommended for your situation. We can also review alternatives for paying off out-of-pocket expenses, such as federal and state programs, private financers, or payment plans.
