NOTHING! It will however cover the baby when it is born if a dna test says he/she is yours. Sorry.

My sister-in-law was in the army this winter and had her baby. All of her check ups were covered and so was the birth. In fact, they kept her in the hospital longer than she needed just so she could get rest (she was single too, she left her cheating husband.) I'm pregnant and wish I had the same benefits that she had. Mind you, she was in an army hospital for all of her check ups and she worked in the medical field, but I don't think it mattered that she worked in the medical field. I pretty much think if you do all your check ups and delivery in your base hospital then everything is covered. She also got a TON of maternity leave. She had her baby in December, but didn't go back to work till March. The army covered her pay the entire time. My baby is due mid April and I'll be done with maternity leave in late May.

Hmmm, let's see, Your in the army, having a child ( I assume your pregnant) and not married? You slept around didn't you.
Well, besides that. I have heard that the Military takes good care of you. However, not being married at the time of birth, the "father" whoever he is, will most likely HAVE to pay for MOST of the birth costs. I wasn't married at the time my son was born and my fiance had to pay 46% of the birth costs. Medicaid paid for all my pregnancy, doctor visits, any med's I needed, but until my son was born, any care in the hospitle that our son recieved, my finace had to pay all that back. He's a veteran but that has nothing to do with it, were not married and in most states, that is the fact we're talking about so in your case, I think medicaid or whatever insurance you have may help pay for your pregnancy cost but once your baby is born, most of the birth costs will HAVE to be paid by the sperm doner, OH, I mean, "Father of your unborn" cause you said that you are not married.

any OB appointments and the actual birth will be covered. I'm a mother of a military child and we're not married.. trust me. his insurance doesn't caver me bc we're not married but any appointments concerning the child your insurance covers

you have tri care, which means YES, they do cover YOUR CHILD not your girlfriend though, so as long as the OB appointments are for her pregnancy then yes. they wont cover anything other then routine OB for the pregnancy. Tri care even covers for a surrogate mom

yes they should cover the medical. are you active duty and have tricare prime? my husband is active and his medical covered our first child and we were not married at the time. talk to your tricare rep. you will probably have to fill out some papers and most likely blood tests when the baby is born.

I think people are not reading all of the question. You are the unwed father, so since you are not married to the mom I think there is no coverage. Ask in personnel department or benefits department.

Nothing unless you're sperm receptacle is considered a legal dependent by your health insurance.
