How Does the TriWest and 1 Method Partnership Expand Access to Rehab?
Through the VA’s Community Care Network (CCN), TriWest Healthcare Alliance and 1 Method Center have partnered to offer veterans, active-duty service members, and their families access to premium, personalized addiction treatment. This partnership helps bypass delays often encountered in VA systems, offering faster, confidential entry to care.
Eligible individuals benefit from a process where TriWest oversees referrals, authorizations, and billing. This removes administrative barriers and allows the veteran to focus entirely on recovery. 1 Method’s inclusion in the TriWest network ensures that more military-connected individuals receive the compassionate, tailored care they deserve.
What Is the Community Care Network and How Does It Work?
The Community Care Network (CCN) is a VA program that connects veterans to high-quality care from civilian providers when VA services are not readily accessible. This includes cases where wait times are excessive, services are unavailable, or the distance to a VA facility is too far.
TriWest functions as the third-party administrator for 26 states, linking eligible veterans with providers like 1 Method Center. Once a veteran is referred and authorized, they can access medical detox, inpatient rehab, and outpatient support services through their existing VA benefits without out-of-pocket costs for most treatments.
What Types of Addiction Services Are Covered by TriWest?
TriWest covers a full spectrum of addiction recovery services at approved facilities like 1 Method Center. Each client receives a customized care plan based on clinical evaluations and individual goals. Treatment is provided at 1 Method’s Los Angeles campus, a discreet and high-end setting ideal for military families seeking peace, privacy, and professionalism.
- Medical Detox: 24-hour supervised withdrawal management that ensures safety and stabilization
- Inpatient Rehab: Structured residential care with integrated therapy and daily support
- PHP and IOP: Day programs and intensive outpatient levels for continued care after detox

Which States Have TriWest Community Care Access to 1 Method?
Veterans in 26 states across the western and midwestern U.S. may qualify for treatment at 1 Method through TriWest. States include California, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, Texas, and rural regions like Alaska, Wyoming, and North Dakota. Even veterans located near VA centers may still qualify due to delays or lack of specialized care.
1 Method’s admissions team assists with the entire eligibility process, working closely with TriWest to ensure all criteria are met. If care is unavailable locally, travel to Los Angeles may be covered when deemed medically necessary. The result is broader access to high-quality care for those who need it most.
- Widespread Eligibility: TriWest serves over half the country, covering western and midwestern states
- Support for Rural Veterans: Veterans in isolated areas can receive care if no local option exists
- Travel Support: Out-of-state treatment is sometimes approved for clinical necessity
What Makes 1 Method’s Dual-Diagnosis Program Effective for Veterans?
Many veterans struggle with both addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions. At 1 Method Center, these issues are not treated separately. The team integrates psychiatric care with addiction therapy to address the full scope of each client’s experience. This improves stability, resilience, and long-term recovery outcomes.
Each client receives a full psychiatric assessment upon intake. Based on that, treatment may include trauma-focused therapies such as EMDR or somatic processing, combined with medication management and evidence-based practices like CBT. Care is provided with cultural awareness and compassion for the veteran’s lived experience.
- Integrated Recovery: Mental health and substance use treatment work together in one plan
- Veteran-Specific Therapy: Therapies address trauma, PTSD, and depression rooted in military life
