if you are active duty, everything is covered. Its less of health insurance as it is socialized medicine. If you need treatment, you just tell the commander and go. No charge. Free drugs too.

Most clinics are set up as teaching instruments. While they provide great service, often times the process can be long.

My wife was diagnosed with stage two gallbladder cancer a year ago. The Army health insurance paid 100% of all surgeries, treatments, and prescriptions. She is now in remission and we never had to shell out 1 cent.

Great coverage almost anywhere for anything. I have TRS which in the last two months has covered 900$ in prescription medication for a skin issue I've been dealing with.

Health insurance for your family is very cost effective. If your care is on base, then you have no co-pays or co-pays for medicine.
