Viviana Leos 5622727 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My husband is joining the army and leaving for basic in a couple weeks. I grew up an Army brat and lost my insurance recently. I have medications that I need and just wanted to know how long I need to hold on for until I can get insurance again. When will I (spouse) be allowed to be enrolled in DEERS as well as receive TRICARE benefits? 2020-03-03T05:28:30-05:00 Viviana Leos 5622727 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My husband is joining the army and leaving for basic in a couple weeks.

Make sure yiur husband has all of your pertinent data (SSN, DOB, address).
