Does TRICARE decide military maternity leave?

Direct answer: Parental leave is a service personnel policy. TRICARE covers maternity care. Those are different questions, and this page does not state a leave length.

Details

Ask your personnel office about leave. For the medical benefit, start with the TRICARE covered services list and confirm the maternity service with your contractor.

What to do next

Confirm this with your Primary Care Manager or regional contractor before scheduling — rules can vary by region and by service.
