Yes. Eligible couples may be able to travel to California for treatment when one partner has qualifying UMR-administered benefits and the other partner needs sponsorship. Trinity Behavioral Health can verify the insured partner’s employer-plan benefits, separately review the other eligible partner for sponsorship, and help coordinate travel and flight arrangements for treatment in California.
Verify Your PPO Benefits and Ask About Couples Sponsorship.
Does the uninsured partner need UMR coverage to travel with me?
No. If the other partner is not enrolled under the employer health plan, Trinity may separately review that person for sponsorship. Sponsorship does not create insurance coverage or transfer the insured partner’s benefits.
What should we verify before traveling?
- The insured partner’s active UMR-administered plan eligibility
- The employer plan’s network and covered services
- Any prior authorization or predetermination requirements
- The other partner’s sponsorship eligibility
- Clinical appropriateness for couples rehab
- The travel assistance available for the admission
Can Trinity help coordinate flights?
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 discussed with admissions before booking. Free airfare, reimbursement, a specific airline, airport, or transportation arrangement is not guaranteed.
Depending on clinical need, treatment may include detox, residential rehab, PHP, or IOP.

Ask Admissions About Sponsorship and Travel to California
UMR-administered benefits vary by employer plan. Sponsorship, admission, and travel assistance must be confirmed individually.
