Effective June 26, 2013, the same-sex legal spouse of an active-duty member of the US Military is entitled to the same benefits as any other spouse, including health insurance. It is important to note that the benefits are available regardless of whether the state where the parties live recognizes their marriage or not.

Prior to June 2013, the military had announced that it would grant health insurance benefits to same-sex partners of military personnel by October 2013, without explicitly stating that the partners needed to be married, although it is likely that benefits will now only be given to persons who are legally married, not to parties in a civil union or domestic partnership.
