Friend returning to the US for addiction treatment

Hello, asking for a friend here. She is a US citizen currently living in Europe and returning to Florida to attend a detox/rehab center, on short notice. I assume no plan would cover her stay at the center but trying to help her get ACA or a short term plan for emergencies and routine visits while she is there. At the moment she is planning to stay 3-6 months but could be longer. She has preexisting conditions.

I read that moving counts as a qualifying event, but since it is last minute I don't think she'll have proof of change of residence very soon though her mom could put her name on a few bills to prove residency in Florida (?). In this case would a short term plan with United for example be a better idea than an ACA plan or while she is waiting for the ACA plan to kick in?

Thanks to anyone who could help, I've been put of the country awhile now too but trying to help since she has a lot on her plate right now.
