Compare what each program provides rather than how each one describes itself. What a program arranges for the weeks after discharge says more about it than anything in its own description. Call (844) 822-5800 if you would rather have someone else do the comparing.

The spread is enormous, from state funded care at no cost to private residential rates that need financing. The cheapest program and the one with the shortest wait are rarely the same program, and that is the real tradeoff. Get the figure in writing if you can, and ask what happens if you need longer than the program length.

It depends which level of care you are asking about, because they run on different clocks. Two centers quoting the same number of days can mean very different hours of treatment inside them. Ask what the program does when somebody needs more time than the block allows.
