Ask all of them the same four questions and the differences show up fast: level of care, program length, cost with your coverage, and what happens afterwards. What a center will not take is as informative as what it will, and it is a faster question to ask. Ask each place what it does when somebody needs more care than its program provides.

The information here is accurate as far as we know, and the center itself can always confirm it. Nobody in this field can quote a wait in writing, because the number moves faster than any page. Ask when the center last changed its program, because that is when its listing went stale.

Some centers hold a small number of funded places and do not advertise them, so the question is worth asking out loud. A letter of medical necessity from a doctor changes what some plans will authorize. Call (844) 822-5800 and the funded options around Woburn can be looked at with you.
