[/QUOTE]But now I understand that the DSM does not have recovery in it I can understand why state paid T's do not accept or belive in recovery stages exspecial since that is the book that stated what they will paid for by the state funding situation.[/QUOTE]

The DSM does not have anything in it that says how much treatment providers are paid, nor what treatment providers will be paid for.

The DSM just says the mental disorder label, the number given to that disorder and the diagnostic criteria for having that disorder.

if you live in the USA (united States of America) every insurance company decides what they will pay for.

you can call your SSI, SSDI caseworker and they will be able to tell you what insurance plan you are on and what that insurance company will pay for and what it wont. they can also help you sign up for other possible insurance companies that will pay for services that the one you have now wont cover.

I have many clients that are on both medicaid (state medical insurance plan) and other insurance plans like Medicare, Blue cross blue shield, work related insurance and others. so that they have full coverage. the bill first goes to one insurance company and what that one doesnt pay for the second one does.
