Allure Detox is a Tricare network provider for medical detox in West Palm Beach, Florida. If you or a family member is covered by Tricare and needs help withdrawing safely from drugs or alcohol, our admissions team can verify your benefits by phone and explain what your plan covers before you arrive.
Medical detox is the first step, not the whole journey. Our program is built to stabilize you safely during withdrawal and prepare you for the next level of care, whether that is residential treatment with us or a program closer to home.
Who Tricare Covers
Tricare is the health program for active duty service members, National Guard and Reserve members, military retirees, and their eligible family members. Behavioral health care, including treatment for substance use disorders, is a covered benefit when it is medically necessary.
We accept the Tricare plans most commonly used by beneficiaries in Florida, including Tricare Prime, Tricare Select, Tricare Reserve Select, and Tricare Young Adult. If you are not sure which plan you have, our admissions counselors can confirm it during your benefits check.
Tricare or VA? Know Which One You Have
Many veterans assume they have Tricare when their coverage is actually through VA health care. The two are separate programs with different rules. Tricare generally covers retirees and current service members and their families. Veterans who are not retired usually receive care through the VA, which has its own process for approving treatment outside VA facilities. If you are unsure, call us and we will help you sort out which program applies to you.
How Tricare Coverage Works for Detox
Is Allure Detox in-network with Tricare?
Yes. Allure Detox is a Tricare network provider, which usually means lower out-of-pocket costs than an out-of-network facility. Your exact cost share depends on your plan and your status as a sponsor or family member.
Do I need a referral or authorization?
It depends on your plan. Tricare Prime typically requires a referral from your primary care manager and prior authorization for inpatient substance use treatment. Tricare Select allows you to see network providers without a referral, though authorization may still be required for inpatient care. Our admissions team handles authorization requests on your behalf.
What does Tricare cover during detox?
Tricare covers medically necessary detox services at network facilities. This typically includes medical assessment, medication to manage withdrawal, 24-hour nursing care, and the therapeutic services that are part of your stay. We will go over any expected out-of-pocket costs with you before admission so there are no surprises.
A benefits check usually takes 10 to 15 minutes by phone.
Supporting Service Members and Veterans Through Detox
People who have served face challenges that civilians often do not: post-traumatic stress, deployment-related trauma, chronic pain from service injuries, and the pressure of a culture that rewards pushing through. Substance use often starts as a way to cope with those things. Our clinical team treats the withdrawal and the conditions underneath it at the same time.
Our dual diagnosis approach is designed for exactly this situation, where PTSD, depression, anxiety, or chronic pain is tangled up with drug or alcohol use.
What Happens During Medical Detox at Allure
Medical detox typically lasts five to seven days, depending on the substance involved and your health. From the moment you arrive, our medical team monitors you around the clock to keep withdrawal as safe and comfortable as possible.
Your stay includes:
- A medical assessment on admission and an individualized detox plan
- Medication-assisted treatment and medication management to ease withdrawal symptoms
- 24-hour clinical care and medical supervision
- Individual sessions with a licensed therapist and daily group therapy
- Nutritious meals and a comfortable, private setting that supports rest and recovery
Continuing Your Recovery After Detox
Detox treats withdrawal. Lasting recovery takes ongoing care. Before you leave, our team works with you to plan the next step, which for many clients is residential treatment at Allure. Tricare covers continued treatment when it is medically necessary, and we can help coordinate the authorization so there is no gap between detox and what comes next.
What if I Don’t Have Health Insurance?
If you are not currently insured, or you would prefer not to use your Tricare benefits for privacy reasons, we offer private pay options and can discuss payment arrangements that work for your situation. Our goal is to help you get treatment regardless of how it is paid for.
Getting Started
Whether you are seeking help for yourself or for someone you love, our admissions counselors are available 24 hours a day to verify your Tricare benefits, answer your questions, and walk you through what to expect. Call today to start your benefits check.
