[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 479699, member: 59"] Andy thank you for that information. We did start out in outpatient after she was assessed and determined not to need inpatient. She lasted two days when I told them I was paying $500 a day for nothing because she was drinking every night, coming home at 4am and going to outpatient with glassy eyes and alcohol breath. They didn't even notice (rolling eyes). The counselor agreed she needed inpatient and was able to make a call to get her admitted. Like I said it didn't do much in the way of financial help for us, but you are right, outpatient is a way to open the door. FLowerGarden, if you do go this route, be his advocate. The outpatient team was willing to keep her there for the duration I believe. They were completely unaware that she was faking it. I had to go in and tell them what was really happening and that she needed something more. Nancy [/QUOTE]
