Tricare supports eligible veterans, military retirees, service members, and their families with comprehensive healthcare coverage, ensuring access to essential services such as doctor visits, emergency care, behavioral health support, and substance use recovery.
Tricare’s robust provider network spans across the country and internationally, making it easier for members to connect with the right care for their individual needs.

Through this thorough and accessible network, Tricare members are empowered to take charge of their health, supported by a system designed for their unique lifestyle and challenges.
Tricare Plans for Addiction Recovery
Tricare offers a range of health plan options, each designed to meet the needs of military members, retirees, and their families. Coverage details and out-of-pocket costs vary depending on your status and the specific Tricare plan you have.
Common Tricare programs include:
Tricare Prime: A managed care option with low out-of-pocket costs and assigned primary care managers. It covers essential health services, including inpatient and outpatient addiction treatment, for those who live near military or network providers.
Tricare Select: A preferred provider plan that allows members to choose their own providers without referrals. It typically involves moderate cost-sharing and includes comprehensive addiction recovery coverage.
Tricare Reserve Select/Retired Reserve: Plans for qualified National Guard and Reserve members, and retirees under age 60. These offer flexible provider choices and cover a broad range of addiction treatment services, with varying premiums and deductibles.
Tricare for Life: For military retirees with Medicare Part A and B, this plan acts as secondary coverage, helping to pay costs not covered by Medicare, including behavioral health and addiction treatment.
Tricare’s coverage supports treatment for many types of addiction, including alcohol, opioids, and other substances. The amount covered depends on your Tricare program, your eligibility, and whether you receive care from in-network or authorized providers.
