Living with a mental health condition can be overwhelming—and not knowing where to turn can make matters worse. As a veteran, you may feel like you don’t have anyone to talk to that will understand. However, you are not alone in your struggles.
Mental health concerns are sweeping the nation, with over one in five now suffering from a mental health condition and one in 20 living with a serious mental health disorder. However, when looking at the veteran populations, these rates are often higher, especially when focusing on depression and post-traumatic disorder (PTSD).
Research shows that approximately 14% to 16% of the veterans deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan are affected by depression or PTSD. Many of these veterans have a dual diagnosis, further complicating their path to treatment.
At Transformations Mending Fences, we help veterans like you get the needed treatment. Optum VA CCN mental health rehab is available to those in need.
If you’re unsure whether your insurance plan covers treatment, please call us at 888-995-6013 to verify your options.
One of the primary concerns is the financial cost of treatment. In many cases, people are ready and willing to get help but are unsure how they will pay for treatment.
That is why we urge everyone to call and have our team verify their coverage.
Optum VA Community Care Network (CCN), part of UnitedHealth Group®, is a partner of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. This provider and others like it aim to ensure the nation’s veterans have access to care when they need it most.

This collaboration ensures veterans have access to the mental health and dual-diagnosis treatment they need.

For many, health insurance can seem like a mystery. What’s covered and what’s not?
While policies and laws surrounding insurance are constantly changing, there are various types of plans—both private and public. The coverage you have is based on your plan. Many common health insurance types exist, whether Medicaid, CHIP, or VA Health Care—and while mental health treatment was not typically covered in the past, it is now in many cases.
In 2008, the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act was passed. Although this law does not require insurance providers to cover mental health treatment, it does ensure mental health services are treated like any other. For those that do offer mental health treatment, they cannot charge a higher copay for mental therapy compared to other specialists, for example.
Insurance providers often cover medically necessary treatments, including:
Your plan will determine the extent of your insurance coverage, such as the length of stay in a mental health rehab facility. As a veteran, you may have access to specialized coverage.
Optum aims to provide veterans with more health care choices.
Third-party administrators, like Optum, manage a network of community care providers and provider billing. Currently, Optum covers regions 1, 2, and 3, which cover 36 states, the District of Columbia, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico.
As of this writing, the VA Community Care Network is active in all three regions and serves over six million veterans.
While Optum plays many roles, veterans struggling with mental health concerns will be involved with the Optum behavioral health network team, which offers access to psychiatry support. Optum handles all claims processing—on average, they are paid within 14 days.
