My friend, who retired from the military and receives health care insurance, wants to



Know if his wife is eligible to receive the same health care as well.

I accessed a few websites regarding this issue but the information is multi faceted as far as who is covered and when. I cannot safely answer the question and suggest that your friend consult with the provider of the insurance policy to ascertain if his spouse is covered.

I don't know much about it, but this site may help.
