How Much Will TRICARE Cover for Drug and Alcohol Rehab?
The amount TRICARE covers for addiction treatment depends on your specific plan and benefits. While coverage varies, understanding a few key insurance terms can help you better estimate your potential costs for rehab services.
Beyond your monthly premium, your plan may include:
Deductible
A deductible is the amount you may need to pay for covered healthcare services before your insurance begins sharing in the cost. Depending on your TRICARE plan, certain services may be subject to a deductible, while others may be covered differently.
Copayments or Coinsurance
After any applicable deductible is met, you may still be responsible for a portion of treatment costs through copayments or coinsurance. A copayment is typically a fixed dollar amount for a covered service, while coinsurance is a percentage of the total cost that you pay after insurance contributes its share.
Out-of-Pocket Maximum
An out-of-pocket maximum is the most you would pay for covered healthcare services during a plan year. Once this limit is reached, your insurance may cover eligible services at a higher rate for the remainder of the coverage period, depending on your plan.

Twenty-one years ago I arrived at FH to begin the process of, what would end up being, the single greatest decision of my life. At that moment, I was terrified! After the initial fear, uncertainty, and self-loathing were brought to the service via individual and group therapy (special nod to grief therapy!), I saw there truly was a sober way out of the train wreck that I had made of my life. Fast forward - I haven't had a drink since the day I arrived there in 2004. I fully believe that God led me to FH and I'm so grateful to Him and the wonderful people there who make the magic happen.
Several years ago, when a family member needed help, we chose Fellowship Hall because I personally knew a couple of employees and had heard wonderful things about the organization. The beautiful, peaceful campus was an added bonus. Recovery is a challenging journey, often requiring various types of treatment, and Fellowship Hall's Residential Drug & Alcohol Recovery Program was the crucial starting point for our loved one's recovery journey, which has been a great success.
I relapsed after a couple years of recovery and couldn't get clean on my own. Fellowship Hall helped me get clean and back into recovery and I'll be forever grateful for everyone there! The family program is also amazing! They gave me my life back!
Fellowship Hall saved my life. I came here scared and sick and I left sober and happy. The facility, the staff (and the food) are all excellent. The care is intensive and effective. If anyone is struggling with alcohol or substance abuse and feel that they need something extra to help get straight - this is the place!
I can’t even explain what this place has done for me. Fantastic staff and I made fantastic friends. I will be forever grateful to here. This is seriously a fantastic place and I would recommend it to anybody that needs help. Lord knows I did and I got myself into the right place. This one. Thank you Fellowship Hall!
FH is an amazing treatment center. The staff are professional and caring, going above and beyond their responsibility to make patients feel welcome and comfortable during a difficult time. There is a good balance of large group education, small group therapy and one on one counseling. I also found time to be with myself and make use of the beautiful grounds for exercising and meditating. My life began to change from this experience!
I truly believe that Fellowship Hall saved my life, my family and is responsible for my relationship with my God today. The staff is beyond compare, the accommodations and the food are well above average. I am grateful for my time there, so much so that I went back, and after struggling, was welcomed with open arms! I wore out the meditation trail, and have made great friends and memories I would have never known.
As a former guest at Fellowship Hall, I received the best care a person in recovery could possibly get. Their staff is superb and their curriculum is top notch. Thanks to all at Fellowship Hall who have helped me on my recovery journey!
The decision to enter Fellowship Hall was the best I've made in decades. The counselors were great. They give great classes that give you the tools to live a happy drug and alcohol free life.
