Tricare benefits after divorce

Question:

Hello, I have being married for almost 20 years and my husband has been in the military all those years. He retired a few months ago. We are getting a divorce. Do I have any tricare benefits after the divorce? My kids will but I don't know if I do. Thanks.

Jim's Reply:

I can't say what you may or may not have in the way of benefits...the divorce court will decide all that depending on the circumstances of his service, etc.
