How do healthcare plans work under DoDEA? What options are given and generally how much do they cost?

Also, how are prescription drugs handled? I know there are different classifications for drugs overseas and I was wondering would drugs like anti-depressants (Sertraline, Escitalopram), sleep medications (Trazodone, Ambien), or ADHD medications (Adderral, Ritalin, Concerta) be available for refill at overseas posts?

Also, is vision care and dental care available on base or is that generally handled off base?
haha You would have your choice of a few different plans/companies (FEHB, Aetna, etc). Premiums vary based on plan, family size etc. We pay around $160 per paycheck for 3 people.

The vast majority of meds will be available at the on base pharmacy and/or on the economy (depending on the location), including the types you asked about.
