Out-of-pocket costs with TriWest-administered addiction treatment benefits depend on the specific program, eligibility category, authorized service, network rules, and applicable cost-sharing requirements. Trinity Behavioral Health accepts TriWest benefits, but there is no single deductible, copay, or coinsurance amount that applies to everyone using TriWest.
Before admission, verify the specific TriWest program and member responsibility.
Do TRICARE West and VA Community Care have the same costs?
No. They are different programs. TRICARE cost sharing depends on the beneficiary’s plan and status. VA Community Care cost responsibility depends on VA eligibility and applicable VA rules. Do not infer one program’s costs from the other.
Can authorization affect whether care is covered?
Yes. Current TriWest guidance requires authorization for several nonemergent behavioral-health levels of care. Services outside an authorization can affect claims or coverage, depending on the program and circumstances.
Can costs differ by level of care?
Yes. Detox, residential rehab, PHP, and IOP can be subject to different authorization and cost-sharing rules.
