Well, it looks like Radar had better sources than TMZ last night – early Tuesday evening, Radar reported that Lindsay Lohan had already signed her own release forms for UCLA’s Neuropsychiatric Hospital. Lindsay was there for 23 days, and during her court-ordered stay, doctors discovered that she had been “misdiagnosed” with ADHD, and that her years of Adderall usage was just getting her high after all. Still no apologies or compensation though!
The word from various sources surrounding Lindsay legal case and her treatment is that the UCLA doctors were all “she’s not really a crackhead, she just acts that way because she’s an a–hole, personality disorders aren’t our bag, baby.” And the new Judge was all “Sure, whatev.”
TMZ also reports that Lindsay’s rehab stay came at a cost of $40,000 a week, and that Lindsay’s Screen Actors Guild insurance didn’t cover it:
Lindsay Lohan’s UCLA medical bill was a whopping $40,000 a week … sources familiar with her treatment tell TMZ
Before continuing … we’ll answer what we know you’re asking. We’re told Lindsay’s insurance (SAG) does not cover treatment at the UCLA Neuropsychiatric Hospital.
Sources at UCLA tell us the base rate for treatment at the Hospital is $17,850 a week, which does not include the cost of doctors, testing, medication, or therapists. All tolled, Lindsay’s bill came to $40,000 a week.
Here’s what’s crazy … Judge Marsha Revel ordered 13 weeks of treatment, which would have brought the bill to $520,000. According to the docs, Judge Revel overreacted and Lindsay was released after only 23 days — almost 3 1/2 weeks. That reduces the cost to a very reasonable $130,400.

Damn… Lindsay is going to hustle her Crackhead Diaries for even more cash! She’s in debt up to her eyeballs, and now she’s got a six-figure rehab bill? Yikes. It’s almost enough to make me feel sorry for her. But then I remember that she’s probably doing lines of coke off of a donkey’s ass in Tijuana right about now. Oh, but she’s going to do “outpatient rehab” now! Riiight.
Surely people are bored by this woman’s antics.
Oh, Crack-ho Lilo. Would’ve missed ya, but you never really left did ya?
Can’t wait to see what she twitters now 😀
Who?????????
will boycott all things Lohan. Especially the movie Machete which looks pretty lame from all the trailers.
So has the scram bracelet gone????
I am so disappointed in TMZ.
All the money they pay out and they still have not gotten a picture of her yet? With 3 inch long roots with her weave barely hanging on?
So it goes to prove. If Lohan really wants to avoid getting papped, it can be done.
So all her cracked out shenanigan’s are purposely done in front of camera’s intentionally. So all the whining how no one will leave her alone, is BS.
Man, she looks like a skeevy middle aged hooker in these pictures. I’m surprised she’s not holding a presser in front of Chateau Marmont right now, while drinking vodka out of a Starbucks cup!
I just can’t get over how old she looks! Her hands and arms in that top pic… She’s a year or too older than me, and I wouldn’t expect to look like that for at least 20 years.
I really want to see a picture of what she looks like AT THIS MOMENT, she surely looks like a crackhead whore who just got out of rehab… like sh*t.
I actually feel sorry for her, no matter what she does. Seriously, poor LiLo… her life is a mess and there’s nothing she (or anyone else) can do about it, it’s too late; this will NEVER end.
So the Neuropsychiatric Hospital doesn’t handle psychiatric issues? WTF? & if she’s not a creackhead, why the outpatient rehab?
Dozy little cow is never going to learn anything if people keep going easy on her.
It seems unfair that in the US you can be forcibly sent to rehab and then have to pay for it.
I’m not saying she shouldn’t have been sent because i think she should have stayed the whole time but then making you pay for it too?
She looks so much better with her natural hair colour in the top pic, I hope she’s at least learnt some things about her issues when she was inside :/
Hope she grows as a person because i miss the tallented Lindsay.
Too bad the one person who had Lindsey’s back had to recuse herself.
Dont worry! Blowhan will be all SCRAMed up and back in jail soon enough.
Those middle-aged hookers never seem to learn!
Here we gooooooo….who wants to take bets on how long she’s out before she gets arrested again??? 🙂
Really, $17,500 for a hospital *room* for a week. Plus doctorin’ and nursin’ and pathologistin’ and no doubt laundryin’ too.
Now, one of you funny people that talked about how *death squads* would choose who got treatment and who got TO DIE under the mooted american universal heath system – explain this to me please. Explain how this can be justified. Please quantify how this service fairly may expect this money in recompense. And explain again how the private sector encourages competitivness that drives prices down.
Proviso: must be rational.
I’m glad they said she doesn’t have ADHD, and now everyone knows it. Maybe that will keep her off the Adderall??
OMG, it’s Dana Plato all over again.
She’s going to get so rich from all this drama.
@lita. It’s hard to respond to a post that is semi-comprehensible, but I’m surmising you’re not from the U.S.
It’s a simple explanation really, occurs even in countries where health care is socialized. Your answer–as you already stated–is privitazation. Nevertheless, you go to a ‘public’ ER in Canada, that band-aid you got is estimated at $40-$100. Take up the issues with the insurance companies, not with the independent facilities who are merely complying with codes they need to fill out in order to keep them legit. In other news, welcome to the real world Ms. Lohan.
I feel really sorry for this young woman. The judge tried to help her, but somehow Lindsay seems to “luck out” of all her responsibilities. The judge probably should have given her x hours of community service for each week that she ended up out of rehab as part of a probation and insisted that she live in some sort of halfway house.
She may not have been addicted but she clearly has some problems. One of these days she’s going to accidentally “off” herself from some incident related to really bad judgment.
I’m surprised the SAG didn’t cover some of the cost of her rehab. but I’m sure now that she’s out everyone will be at her for the first interview and will pay some sort of outrageous amount of money for it.
It’s hard to take stars and their so called recovery seriously anymore.
she’s had her hair every color under the sun and yet she always looks like a 50 year old long island housewife. how is that possible?
“It’s almost enough to make me feel sorry for her. But then I remember that she’s probably doing lines of coke off of a donkey’s ass in Tijuana right about now.”
yup, basically how i always feel when i read anything about her! and while i have no doubt that her narcissistic personality will land her in legal troubles [again] soon, i just hope she doesnt kill an innocent person before the judicial system catches up with her
@original kate: It’s a blurry nature/culture thing. Her mother, after all–barring her daughter’s successful capitalizing on scandalous public behavior–is approximately a 50-year-old LI housewife. What’s amazing is how that aesthetic, so persistently ugly in context on LI, gets so much love from the cameras. There are thousands of women and their daughters who have looked exactly like that for decades on LI.
“It’s almost enough to make me feel sorry for her. But then I remember that she’s probably doing lines of coke off of a donkey’s ass in Tijuana right about now.”
Absolutely love that bit – go Kaiser!
EDIT: oh… Obama’s *death squads*. Duh. Whenever Palin is involved, I simply shut down. Nevertheless, more entertaining than Lohan even…
Wow I’m completely late to respond but @emu, you really, intentionally, missed my point huh!
Ok I am not sure if anyoneagrees but with the most recent Paris news I feel like it only shows this girl is more worthless. Why doesn’t she do something worthwhile with her daddy’s money? Like donate time, money, or anything to someone who needs help. This would be much better. Don’t you think?
