Husband ETSing what happens with tricare?

JaysensMom

My husband will be ETSing in December. We are due to have our baby in April. I was under the impression that tricare covers you for 6 months after the ets date so our baby would be covered? Or do we need to look for other insurance? I plan on calling tricare soon but didn't know if any of you ladies had any knowledge on the matter. Thanks!

You can get 5 years of tricare free or some insurance. I am not sure. Call wounded warrior project the person should be able to tell you. If he is going to reserves you have reserve select opt. 206$ a month. They may cover any way because your pregnant. Call them and ask. Good luck!

180 days if the active duty member qualifies for TAMP. A simple google search gave me the information straight from tricare website. https://www.tricare.mil/~/media/Files/TRICARE/Publications/FactSheets/Sep_AD_FS.pdf
