GEHA plans may cover medical detox for substance use disorders, but exact benefits depend on the member’s specific plan. Trinity Behavioral Health accepts GEHA benefits when the policy provides applicable coverage. GEHA requires prior authorization for some services and publishes behavioral-health and chemical-dependency utilization-review resources.
Verify your GEHA detox benefits before admission.
Is detox automatically covered?
