TriWest Healthcare Alliance helps veterans access a full range of substance use disorder (SUD) treatment through the VA’s Community Care Network. While not an insurer itself, TriWest coordinates with the VA and approved providers like 1 Method Center to deliver essential services—from detox to long-term recovery support.
TriWest covers medically supervised detox programs that allow veterans to safely withdraw from drugs or alcohol. These programs provide 24-hour monitoring, medication support, and mental health supervision, helping manage withdrawal symptoms and prevent complications during the earliest phase of recovery.
Inpatient rehab is recommended for veterans with severe addiction or co-occurring disorders. These programs include full-time residential care, evidence-based therapies, medication management, and psychiatric oversight, all within a structured and secure setting that encourages immersive healing and stabilization.
Residential rehab offers longer-term care in homelike environments. Veterans engage in daily therapy, trauma treatment, mindfulness practices, and life-skills training. These programs promote sustained recovery through deep therapeutic work and help clients reintegrate into life with stronger coping tools and confidence.
Outpatient services offer therapy, group counseling, and relapse prevention while veterans continue living independently. These programs are ideal for those transitioning from inpatient care or managing recovery while balancing responsibilities at home or work. Sessions are flexible and designed for long-term engagement.
TriWest covers MAT services that combine medications like Suboxone, Vivitrol, or methadone with behavioral therapies. MAT helps reduce cravings, balance brain chemistry, and prevent relapse in veterans recovering from opioid or alcohol dependence. It is often used as part of a comprehensive, multi-phase plan.
Veterans benefit from aftercare programs that include peer groups, sober coaching, and alumni services. These offerings help maintain progress made during formal treatment. By staying connected to support systems, veterans reinforce their recovery, reduce isolation, and gain accountability in daily life.
Yes, TriWest provides coverage for medically necessary detox through approved facilities. Detox is often the first and most critical step toward recovery. It helps remove substances safely from the body under supervision and prepares the veteran for the next stage of treatment, whether inpatient or outpatient care.
Yes, veterans may receive inpatient and residential rehab coverage through TriWest with a VA referral. These programs are tailored to address both substance use and co-occurring conditions in a live-in setting, offering intensive care, structure, and personalized support during early and extended recovery phases.
Outpatient programs supported by TriWest offer flexible yet structured care for veterans needing continued support. These programs include therapy, relapse prevention, and peer services while allowing veterans to live at home and maintain work or family responsibilities. Options vary in intensity and duration.
Yes, TriWest covers PHP services for veterans who require structured care without overnight stays. PHPs provide several hours of treatment per day, five to seven days a week, and are often used as a transitional step after inpatient treatment or for those who need intensive care while living off-site.
MAT combines FDA-approved medications with therapy to reduce cravings, ease withdrawal, and support long-term sobriety. It is commonly used for veterans with opioid or alcohol dependency. TriWest covers MAT services when medically necessary and initiated through a VA referral. Medications and therapy are included.
These medications are paired with therapy to address emotional triggers, develop coping skills, and build sustainable recovery habits. MAT is an essential option in modern addiction treatment, especially for long-term opioid dependency and alcohol use disorders in military populations.
Yes, TriWest recognizes the value of ongoing care and covers aftercare services such as alumni groups, peer mentorship, sober coaching, and continued therapy. These offerings help veterans maintain sobriety, manage triggers, and stay engaged with recovery long after completing a primary treatment program.
To access care, start with a VA provider who will assess your condition and submit a referral. TriWest then connects you with an in-network facility. Veterans can also contact TriWest directly for help locating approved providers in their region. These steps help ensure access to covered, high-quality care without delay.
Veterans, active-duty service members, and military families can now receive TriWest-covered care at 1 Method Center, a boutique rehab facility in Los Angeles. 1 Method offers detox, inpatient rehab, outpatient support, MAT, and holistic therapies—all in a private, luxury setting designed for comfort and healing.
