How do I choose between two centers?
Marketing language is nearly identical across the field, so the comparison has to be made on specifics. The programs that handle a co-occurring diagnosis and the ones that do not are a genuine fork in the road. Call (844) 822-5800 if you would rather have someone else do the comparing.
What does insurance actually cover?
Medicaid and most commercial plans include treatment, with different rules about what they approve. An out of network center can still be partly covered, and the difference lands on you. Get any authorization in writing, with the number of days it covers.
