Rehabs in Jersey Engaged in ‘Appalling’ Practices

MONEY MONEY MONEY –

Oct. 12, 2022 – At a hearing in Trenton to highlight the flaws in the addiction rehabilitation industry, commission investigators testified about their work and what they found as they looked into practices dating back to 2018. The allegations ranged from extensively billing insurance companies to skirting laws regarding patient brokering.

“Some manipulate drug tests or keep patients in the most intensive level of treatment — even if no longer necessary — for prolonged periods,” SCI Chair Tiffany Williams Brewer said. “The result here is that despite advertised claims that they’re in the business to help people trying to overcome addiction issues, numerous recovery facilities and professionals in this state are not looking out for patients’ best interests. Instead, they’re looking to enrich themselves and their corporate interests.”
