Who answers the phone?
Somebody works through a short list: the substance, the amount, the history, the insurance. The call can be made by a relative, and intake lines deal with that constantly. Ask what they would recommend if money were not a factor, and then what they recommend given that it is.
How private is this?
Nothing goes out without an authorization you sign, and that authorization can be narrow. Employers and courts normally receive attendance rather than clinical content. Decide now who you want kept informed, because that form is easier to fill in calmly than in a crisis.
