What separates a good program from a bad one?
Compare what each program provides rather than how each one describes itself. Who delivers the therapy matters: licensed clinicians and counselors in training are not the same thing. Ask both places for the daily schedule and compare those rather than the brochures.
What does insurance actually cover?
The useful question is not whether a plan covers treatment but which level of care it will approve. A plan can approve the detox and then decline the residential stay that was meant to follow it. Ask which level of care the plan has already approved, and for how many days.
Can I work during treatment?
Frequently yes, and the level of care decides it more than the employer does. An employer is generally entitled to dates and a clinician's confirmation, not to a diagnosis. Look at what your own employer offers before you tell anyone anything.
