[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 391110, member: 59"] Janet she can't work for the first three months in the sober house. It is an intensive treatment program, the day is filled with meetings, group, etc, just like it was in inpatient. After the first three months they expect you to get a job and you probably have to turn your pay over to them. You also have to volunteer in the community and go to AA meetings daily. If she had been court ordered they would pay for it but since she was parent ordered we foot the bill. She can't apply for medicaid because she is still our dependant on income taxes. That will probably change next year since she is no longer in school. klmno they can't force her to do it of course. She can refuse but then she is out of the program and loses a support system. toughlovin our insurnace has paid virtually nothing for any of this. We have a $10,000 deductible and they only allow 10 inpatient days and 10 outpatient. By the time our deductible was met she used up all her days. Their willing to give us some time to pay it I guess but like I said we still owe from inpatient. They feel you can't hold a job and give all your attention to the program. She probably needs the sober house but two years...yikes. Out[patient will probably be another 4-5 weeks, four times a week. She's going to talk to her boss and see if they will work with her not being able to work until after 1p.m. everyday, but since it's the holiday season and she's in retail and they already held her job for inpatient and adjusted her schedule for her first outpatient, I'm not sure how willing they are going to be.
