ValueOptions-related behavioral-health benefits may cover partial hospitalization (PHP) when the member’s specific plan includes that level of care and applicable medical-necessity requirements are met. Trinity Behavioral Health accepts ValueOptions benefits, but coverage is plan-specific. ValueOptions became Beacon Health Options, which is now Carelon Behavioral Health.
Before admission, verify the specific PHP benefits.
Can ValueOptions benefits cover PHP?
Potentially. PHP coverage can depend on the underlying payer, current behavioral-health administrator, active eligibility, network status, authorization requirements, medical necessity, and the member’s benefit design.
What is PHP?
Partial hospitalization is an intensive structured level of care delivered during the day without an overnight residential stay. Trinity offers a PHP / day treatment program.
Can authorization be required?
Yes. Current Carelon materials describe authorization reviews that consider clinical information and medical necessity for the requested level of care. Exact requirements depend on the member’s plan.
