[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You either didn't pay the full cost of this rehab or you paid money to something that is not a rehab.

Seconding (thirding?) the above on Al-Anon. I'm sorry; I know this sucks. [/quote]

OP here.  I agree the amount is not much.  She had already paid about $500.  She doesn't live in the DMV, it is a mid size city a few hours from here. It is outpatient, I think she goes a few hours a day to check in with doctors and do some group and individual therapy.  It is for 30 days.  I did research online regarding this place so it is a real rehab center, but whether it works or is the best one I don't know.   I do know because of her job (she works at the main hospital in her city) she is super paranoid and worried about people from work finding out and then her losing her job or never getting a new one should she need to do that.  I explained to her that addiction is protected under the ADA and that under HIPPA her employer cannot look at her medical records, but she won't budge. She doesn't want to go through her insurance (which requires in patient in order to pay).  So perhaps this was a center she thought no one from her hospital would find out about, I don't know.[/quote]
