OPTUM VA CCN Network Coverage Overview
The OPTUM VA Community Care Network (CCN) connects eligible veterans with community-based treatment providers, including substance use disorder treatment facilities, outside the VA system.

This means OPTUM VA CCN Network plans must cover addiction treatment services, though the specific level of coverage — including deductibles, copays and out-of-pocket maximums — depends on your individual plan.
