What residential treatment means
Residential treatment means living at the program, with treatment and support around the clock. It fits when it isn't safe to be at home, or when outpatient care hasn't been enough. See IOP vs PHP vs outpatient care.
Ask the program whether it accepts Medicare assignment for this level of care. With a Medicare Advantage plan, call the plan too: it has its own network.
