About Recoverion

Why Recoverion exists

Veterans and military families in San Antonio deserve straight answers about addiction treatment and insurance coverage. Not a sales pitch. Not a form to fill out before you know what you're getting into. Just clear, honest information, so you can make sense of the system at your own pace.

The mission

What this resource is here to do

Getting help for addiction is hard enough. Navigating TRICARE, VA benefits, prior authorizations, in-network rules, and appeal deadlines while also managing a family and a career can make the whole thing feel impossible before it even begins.

Recoverion exists to remove that friction. Every page is written to answer a real question that a real person in San Antonio is searching for, in plain language, with links to the sources that back it up. No pressure. No phone number to call before you're ready. Just information, organized so you can actually use it.

The site is especially built for the military community here: active-duty service members at JBSA, veterans in Bexar County, military retirees, and the spouses and families who often carry the hardest parts of this alone.

The questions about your career, your privacy, and your family are the ones that keep people from getting help. We answer them in full and in plain English, so you can make sense of your situation before you do anything.

How we stay accurate

The standards behind every page

A health resource that gets things wrong does real harm. These are the commitments that apply to every piece of content on the site.

Every coverage claim is sourced

If we state what a benefit covers, it links to the official rule: TRICARE.mil, VA.gov, or Texas DSHS. Never to our opinion.

Clinical content is reviewed before it goes live

Any page covering treatment, mental health, or clinical process is checked by a licensed clinician before publication.

Pages show when they were

Benefit rules change. Each page notes its last-reviewed date, and we update the content when the guidance does.

We never invent statistics

Every number used on the site is sourced to an official reference. Population and prevalence figures are verified before publishing.

We point you back to the source of truth

For your specific situation, we always tell you to confirm details with your plan, your provider, or the VA directly.

Corrections are handled openly

If something is wrong, we fix it promptly and note the correction. You can flag an error via the contact page.
