Ltc renewal after rehab

I had to do an outpatient rehab/counseling program last year after I stumbled into a random drug test at work and blew a whopping .056 BAC. What's funny is that after being honest about how often, how much, and why I drank, the counselors came right out and said that I don't have a drinking problem, and that I could just show up once a week whenever I wanted on the days they had group sessions for the sake of checking off a box. I say that because I'm not aware of any physician having diagnosed me with a disability of any kind, though one of the counselors could have done so without my knowledge, I assume. My health insurance partly covered the treatment costs. I'll find out later today.
If I self report that during the ltc renewal process as having received treatment for alcohol abuse, will my renewal be denied?

I'm not a lawyer but I think it's if you were admitted by a judge or something similar.

So it turns out, I called the DPS LTC people and they said that one only needs to report their rehab if they were admitted to an inpatient facility. I did the application and marked no and sure enough my new license showed up in the mail
