While struggling with substance abuse and addiction or any other co-occurring disorders in Alaska, you might be worried about how you are going to afford the cost of care. In many cases, addiction treatment services tend to be expensive and beyond what most people can afford.
If you have served in the military or you are the direct beneficiary such as a child or a spouse of a member of the military or a veteran, you may be able to use your military insurance (e.g., TRICARE) to help you offset the cost of your addiction treatment.
TRICARE will provide you with coverage for certain emergency services without prior authorization. However, if the services you receive are not considered to be a medical or mental health emergency, you will have to seek prior authorization or be referred to a facility by a medical professional.
That said, you can be sure that this form of military insurance covers a wide variety of treatment and rehab services linked to addiction and co-occurring medical and mental health disorders, including but not limited to:
When you decide to overcome your substance abuse problem, you will first have to go through withdrawal to deal with your physical dependence on the drugs that you were abusing.
During this process, you will experience withdrawal symptoms and extensive substance cravings. For this reason, you may require medically supervised detoxification services especially if your withdrawal is particularly acute.
The level of care offered will ensure that you do not suffer too much from your withdrawal symptoms. further, it will reduce your risk of relapse given the fact that you will also be struggling with drug and alcohol cravings. This process is known as medically managed detox and it is covered by military insurance (e.g., TRICARE).
Although this service is covered automatically when it is considered a medical emergency, you may need prior authorization if you are going to receive inpatient detox services that are considered to be a non-emergency.
You can also use your military insurance to pay for your time in an intensive outpatient program or an IOP. In this program, you will receive services to reduce your risk of relapse, reduce your symptoms and manage them, as well as stabilize your body and mind.
You can go through an IOP once you have completed a stay at another higher level treatment center such as a partial hospitalization program or a residential treatment program.
Military insurance can also pay for your outpatient psychotherapy services. However, these services have to be considered to be psychologically and medically necessary to the treatment of your substance abuse and addiction. The treatment you will receive will include group therapy, family therapy, and individual counseling. For certain regular outpatient program services, you may need prior authorization.
The other addiction treatment services that you can pay in Alaska for using your military insurance (e.g., TRICARE) include but are not limited to partial hospitalization programs, residential or inpatient drug rehab, and many more.
