TRICARE offers mental health care services for anyone coping with mental health issues, including those who have thoughts of suicide. Treatment can help individuals to better address life’s difficulties. TRICARE covers many mental health services like individual and family psychotherapy (talk therapy), substance use disorder treatment, intensive outpatient treatment, partial hospitalization programs, and inpatient treatments. You may need a referral or prior authorization for some mental health care services. If admitted to a hospital, call your primary care manager, regional contractor, or TRICARE Overseas Program Regional Call Center for help with getting continued stay authorization.
