I don't know if anyone here knows the answer to this, maybe one of you has been there done that...
I spoke with one of my son's counselors today at the rehab facility. Turns out, he only has 15 days of this level of care left on our policy. After that's gone, he only has outpatient care available. NO ONE ever said anything to us about a limited number of days on any level of treatment.
I'm back to freaking out. My son cannot come home yet!! The counselor said they are recommending he get at least 60 days of inpatient treatment, so we are way off here. He suggested I call the business manager tomorrow. I'll also be calling our insurance company!
Suggestions?? Anyone ever heard of insurance companies paying for more days of treatment if the need is proven?
Did we get caught in some kind of trap. Get the kid here, "oh sorry you're outta time so now you have to pay big $$ to keep him here" kind of thing?
