Yes. If one partner has a qualifying UMR-administered health plan, Trinity Behavioral Health can verify that insured partner’s actual addiction-treatment benefits and may separately sponsor the other eligible partner through Trinity’s couples sponsorship model. UMR is a third-party administrator rather than an insurance company, so the employer-sponsored plan’s specific benefits, network, and authorization rules must be verified.

Is UMR my insurance company?
UMR states that it is a third-party administrator that works with group health plans and processes claims and other plan-administration tasks. UMR is part of UnitedHealthcare, but individual UMR-administered plans can differ substantially because employers determine their benefit designs and networks.
What if only one partner has a UMR-administered plan?
Trinity accepts UMR-administered benefits where applicable, but the insured partner’s exact plan must be verified for active eligibility, network status, covered services, cost sharing, and any prior-authorization requirements. If the other partner is uninsured or not enrolled under the plan, Trinity may separately review that person for sponsorship.
Does my UMR plan cover the uninsured spouse?
Not automatically. Plan benefits apply only to enrolled eligible members. If the spouse is not enrolled, Trinity sponsorship is a separate admissions arrangement and does not add the spouse to the health plan or transfer benefits.
Can we enter couples rehab together?
Potentially. Trinity’s couples rehab program may allow eligible couples to enter treatment together when clinically appropriate. Each partner receives an individual assessment and treatment plan.
Can Trinity help us travel to California?
Yes. Trinity can help eligible couples coordinate flight arrangements, arrival planning, ground-transportation coordination, travel logistics, and discharge travel planning when applicable. Exact assistance should be confirmed before booking travel.
What should we verify first?
- The insured partner’s active UMR-administered plan eligibility
- The employer plan’s network
- Coverage for the recommended level of care
- Plan-specific prior authorization or predetermination requirements
- Deductible, copay, coinsurance, and out-of-pocket responsibility
- The other partner’s sponsorship eligibility
- Clinical appropriateness for couples treatment
- The travel assistance available for the admission
UMR’s current provider guidance states that plan-specific prior-authorization requirements can be checked for most UMR-administered group health plans.
Depending on clinical need, treatment may include detox, residential rehab, PHP, or IOP.

UMR is a third-party administrator, not the insurer. Benefits vary by employer plan. Trinity sponsorship is separate from insurance dependent coverage, and verification, authorization, sponsorship, travel assistance, and admission are not guaranteed.
