Evanston, IL. - Military Insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE)

There are many ways to get part or all of your drug rehabilitation paid for. For those who want to use military insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE) you will need to contact your provider directly to see what you are eligible for. While both parts of TriCare (TriCare Standard and TriCare Extra) cover drug rehabilitation, only some VA benefits cover the expense of substance abuse rehabilitation. Once you have spoken with your military insurance provider (e.g., VA, TRICARE) and have a full understanding of what exactly they will cover regarding addiction treatment you can begin researching drug rehab centers. Be sure to speak to the billing department to make sure that they take your military insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE). You will want to have a full understanding of what your part (if any) of the program costs you will be responsible for before you enroll into the facility.
