| My husband is joinning the army, we have 3 children all under 2...I have a few questions...?
Medical is free and if dental runs around $20/month then a co-pay if any work is done (link for dental is below). I am in the Air Force, but have been lucky enough to spend 14 of my 19 years on Army posts. Usually when you arrive to a new base they will let you stay in TLF (Temporary Lodging Facility) for up to 10 days. Anything over 10 days is out of your pocket. When I got to Peterson AFB, CO the TLF was $33/night. Base housing waiting all depends on where you go. I was always able to get in under a month, but like they said it can take longer. If you have orders somewhere you can get on the waiting list before you arrive. http://www.tricaredentalprogram.com/tdptws/home.jspGood luck. |
