What if I have no insurance?
Medicaid and most commercial plans include treatment, with different rules about what they approve. A plan tends to approve a level of care in blocks of days, then review whether to carry on. Ask what the rate becomes if the plan stops approving days before the program ends.
What do I need to pack for a residential program?
Think documents and medication first, comforts second. Anything a prescriber gave you should travel with its label attached, because an unlabeled container is usually refused. Sort out who has your keys, your mail and your animals before the day itself.
