What does treatment at a place like this cost?
List price and what you actually pay are different numbers, and only the second one matters to you. The gap between two quotes is often the length of the program rather than the quality of the care. Ask for the all in figure, then ask which parts of it are estimates.
Can I start outpatient and move up?
One removes you from the situation and the other treats you inside it, and that is the whole of the decision. A residential stay is the easier thing to get approved when there is a documented medical reason for it. Ask whether the center offers the middle levels or only a bed and a weekly appointment.
Can I work during treatment?
Outpatient programs run early and late for exactly this reason, so many people are treated without taking leave. An employer generally needs the dates and a clinician's confirmation rather than the condition itself. Look at what your own employer offers before you tell anyone anything.
