Drug Rehabs Lure In Patients for Insurance Money—Then Leave Them on the Street

A troubling trend has emerged in the drug rehabilitation industry, where some facilities lure patients in with promises of high-quality treatment, only to leave them abandoned after securing insurance payments. Former patients and insurers have reported that these operators often impose excessive charges while providing minimal care, raising serious ethical concerns about the practices in this sector. This situation not only jeopardizes the recovery of vulnerable individuals but also highlights the need for stricter regulations to protect patients and ensure they receive the support they truly need.
