It's not that they pay out easily it's that these people have figured out exactly how to make the paperwork exactly correct to get what they want... that's the issue with our medical system its based on red tape and if you know how the system works you can take advantage of it Meanwhile it leaves people who are going through a hard time with illness and also trying to navigate their insurance in a field of red tape... these scam artists are doing the paperwork on the addicts behalf and they do it every day all day they know how to make it look like its legitimate and that's the issue! what's worse is treatment is the only real solution to the drug epidemic we have in this country jail and prison doesn't have any effect on it and it's far more costly than a decent treatment program too... we need to as a country invest in a policy of treatment that is well regulated by both insurance and government... there are effective and time tested treatments that work like a methadone program that includes counseling and medication therapy its been used with much higher success rates then inpatient treatment detox centers for decades yet we continue to increase our idea of "drying out" addicts and putting them back in their old situation and expecting them to be fixed because they spend 28, or 90 days in a locked up house that we call a "treatment facility" addiction is no different from any other type of illness it requires medical treatment and usually it's a long term plan not 28 days of no drugs and they are cured!
Elizabeth Ferguson My point was really about how much they fight the individual who has a legitimate claim & try to convince people they don't have to pay out. Big entities like insurance companies know they have more power than an individual citizen & they use that unfairly. I've advocated for many people & have seen this repeatedly.
@@johnroberts4571 No. If the republicans werent against healh care for everyone this shit wouldnt happen. This is what happens when you let Insurance companies run things.
And then politicians wanna say private insurance is the bestbfor america and to provide proof that universal health is better. And when you show them they say its a lie or say that thousands will die because they will take away insurance if we change it , that they do it for the benefit of the people. I guess they are probably referring it benefits the people on the top 1% , if thats the case then yeah, they are not lying.
This is horrible! So why is this not in the media? This is the type of stuff we need to be informed of on tv. I am so sorry for these victims may God protect them.
This has been going on for a very very long time. I posted my story in the comments. That was back in 04. In a town called mayberry. Aka mount airy nc.
Yeah, first time I hear it too and I want to go visit florida but horrible things keep popping up in the news. Is Florida even safe to visit? People need to get some other type of help before trying drugs. The majority of people are weak. If you are a weak person, please don't try hard drugs. You will not be in control. 🙏💯
No parole, no death penalty, no human contact. If anyone chooses to abuse and dehumanize another human they too should suffer the same fate for as long as their victims live. That's fair.
My son and my niece are both addicts. I don't know what to do. I can't have them here...they are unruly and violent NOW. And they didn't grow up with any abuse or seeing it at home. Help! What can I do?? Tie them up in a room??? And go to jail??? Wtf.
I almost got trafficked by a guy who was supposedly my friend we went to Vegas we went to a hotel and there was 4 guys waiting saying that If i didnt go down there and make some money they would hurt me. So I went down and ran away from the hotel walked 2 miles to the greyhound station and never looked back. It was scarring. I'm happy I got away very thankful.
This is just horrible😢😡 I was a heroin and meth addict and was kidnapped and similar things happened to me like Simone.. I still have nightmares constantly.. but luckily I got away and have been sober 2 1/2 years now and have a beautiful 2 year old daughter who truly saved my life!!😊💗 God blessed me with the greatest gift of all when he gave me her!😊🙌💗
As a counselor who really cares about the kids we treat, i am just sick. We can hardly get extra funding from insurance companies when our kids need it. To see people taking advantage of system that is to be helping people treat and recover, is pure evil. The trafficking is just worst then evil.
I'm a 64 year old male who lives in Detroit for the last 15 years. I'm recovering alcoholic of 14 years. All I can say is young women really have to be careful no matter where they go more so than males, because of these predators.
Omar Alvarez, it left when the American government kicked God out of everything and invited Satan to run the show. Satan is just doing the only thing he ever comes to do, which is to kill, steal, and destroy. How much humanity can you expect from a nation that fights to keep a law in place that allows it to murder millions of unborn babies with beating hearts every year by ripping them apart limb by limb in abortions? Those babies are alive, they feel pain, yet Americans BEG to keep the right to murder the unborn created by God and they celebrate when science “discovers new life” by finding a new bacterium. Something is terribly wrong with this nation’s definition of LIFE! 🤨
People should wake up. Our government cares about two things :money and power. Doing nothing about this or our drug death epidemic or the 32000 gun deaths in our cities by black men aged 16 to 35 epidemic mostly gangs over the drug trade , our increasing suicide rate and homelessness etc. They'd rather give huge tax cuts to the rich and take away from social security and medicare and put older people who have worked all their life in poverty. .
people involved in sex trafficking should be used in HARD labor till they die out of exhaustion ... let them see how good it is to be used as an item !!!!!!!!! justice is the cure for everything and this cancer of human greed and moral degradation is itching for a cure like that !
@@MastaSmack there is a difference between a trade based on interest and enslavement ..like consent doesnt even exist in your world ? yo there is something missing in your logic son ! get checked if you really cant tell the difference
This is so awful. I lost a friend to one of these “halfway houses” in Florida. They gave her money to relapse and she overdosed and died. She was a good girl.
They're all good people baby! What people aren't seeing is Why do people use drugs in the first place?!!? I believe that because of the way the world is.... it's set up so that people who aren't super strong, fail... and those who don't have the drive to make it rich, are losers! Hollywoods grasp on the young human mind has racked up so many failures and Hollywood just spits them out, but there are only a few success stories in comparison!!!
@cindybin2001 P.S.the dealer will deliver to you in 1 hour or less.( most of the time) By the way the police know all about this but it's too big to do anything about plus most of the dealers are lets say "darker" so they don't want to open up that can of worms. PEACE be upon us all.
So horrible and heartbreaking. I pray for all these young women and men that might be rescued from this sub existence, it's just wrong on so many levels...
Now, being 6 years clean and looking back, realizing I had someone trying to get me to go to a " treatment house " in Florida was probably one of these horrible situations. That's terrifying.
Brought it up to my halfway house manager, the upper people (housing, CEO, basically everyone who worked there) they said it was scary but acted like they didn’t believe me and claimed they lost his name and paperwork.
As someone who has battled addiction and successfully quit, this just makes me soo angry. These scammers preying on the desperation of addicts who are actually trying to get better. The whole rehab industry is a scam, from insurance, to kickbacks and patient brokering. The addicted person must have a personal motivation to successfully break the addiction. Most people I know that have recovered successfully, were able to do so on their own, with support from their loved ones. No rehabs, no IOC, no sober homes. All you need is the desire.
I've been sober 7 years. Suboxone saved my life I did a 9 month program. Thing is I want in asking to taper down. If you don't do it the docs won't either. Then you and up with people in suboxone clinics 5+ years. They trace on addiction for another. Though it's better that being a full blown addict. Your still addicted to a substance. You have to have the desire to be clean and the willpower to follow through.
Congratulations on getting and staying off drugs. I was never an addict, but there have been times when I drank heavily. I cured myself by working 60 - 80 hours a week for several years, and investing my earnings. As a result, I got my life together to the point where I no longer want to block things out. I rarely drink, and I do no drugs, not even pot.
The governor of FL tried passing a bill for welfare users to have to take mandatory drug tests. He ownes several testing places. It starts at top. The monster criminals make the laws. Peace.
That's really how it starts. Everyone thinks thier doctors are so noble and ethical. Not!!!! I work for Medicare and I used to work for Medicaid. they do the same thing, they have businesses that they refer thier patients to, It's fraudulent as hell. It's out of control.
Nurse Bennie Sure. And, let's not forget that it is often the doctor who intentionally over prescribes opioids and has those same patients standing on long lines every month so that the doctor can bill insurance companies. Many pain clinics are in the business to get repeat customers via addiction.
@@schoomzer you know it. They sure do. They are partners in that pain clinic and people don't know that. It's illegal for your doctor to refer you to a clinic that he owns or has an interest in.
I know a family whose insurance was legit being billed $24,000 a month for the daughter’s drug testing while she staying at a halfway house. It’s unbelievable
TigerLilyNo13 what does it mean when insurence is billed? who pays/who gets the money? im not from america or familiar with their system sorry im really confused i jus wanna understand

England's NHS isn't much better. They send you to specialists or doctors make needless appointments that don't offer any real or remarkable treatment. The GP I had used to urge me to make more appointments to see him and when I went to the appointments it was just the same old useless information and ineffective medicine. But the doctors get paid. At one point, the clinic receptionists would call me to make appointments. A few times they made appointments without my knowledge and agreement. It's not about good medical outcomes.
THIS is pure evil. We need more ACTION against this people. Let the world know what these people do to other human beings. People with experiences and memories as complex as you yourself are. They are being treated like objects. This is inexcusable.
Sad truth is unless major policy makers focus attention towards this issue it will continue to be common place in Florida and globally. The sex/drug trade industry is worth billions and billions of dollars with some very powerful behind the scenes people pulling strings. So yeah not to be a debby-downer, but the chances of any major changes happening are very slim. Since the people who ultimately profit from these unfortunate souls whether government officials or crime lords will still want their paycheck at the end of the day..
Matthew 13:24-30 Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. So the servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’ But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.” ’ ”
I am 16 months sober from drugs and alcohol. My life is beginning to turn around and I credit the Veterans Administration for giving me the time, as well as, place to heal and recover from the cycle of addiction. Being a veteran and having access to federally funded rehabilitation programs has insulated me from evil scumbags who prey upon those suffering from the disease of addiction. The actions of the predators described in this video are deplorable and frightening. My heart goes out to anyone who fell victim to these scam artists. I hope every scumbag who is found guilty of the crimes described in this video get buried beneath the prisons they will soon find themselves struggling to survive in!!!
Congratulations on your sobriety the lord Jesus saved me from alcoholism. It’s hard and the devil wants you to relapse and go back but Jesus over came the world and you can to! I pray your victorious in your battle.
This happens to the homeless disabled too... More light needs to be shed on the topic, the most vulnerable often have no family, resources or advocates and fall victim to those quick to exploit, abuse and take advantage of them.
I've seen questionable sober houses in upstate New York. A couple were owned and run by so-called Christians, people who wouldn't even provide the basics yet took all their clients' benefits. Everybody is not able to nor should be allowed to open a sober house.
Omg I went to rehab their and they wanted me to stay in a sober living house I said nope going back home and by the grace of God 4 yrs sober. I learned the tools to keep me clean but I always felt something shady with the sober living houses people where relapsing and dying . I felt enough wasn't done to keep these kids clean.
My son also was there in 2015/16 and lived in or very close to, that neighborhood! He was doing great until around the 6 month mark they called me and said he failed a drug test. He flipped out and said it was bullsh!t and demand a retest. They said no & God have to start all over again. I know my son well..and know when hes lying and this time I could tell he wasnt lying. At this point, If he relapsed, he'd be remorseful & admit it. But he was actually crying in the phone with me and yelling at the counselor asking her WHY ARE YOU GUYS DOING THIS TO ME! I had this awful gut feeling. I told him to get out of there immediately and then call me. I found him a redeye flight home the next day. A year later it shut down..surprise suprise.
When I first got sober,I mean really made a decision to stop, a friend of mine tried to talk me into moving out of my apartment and into some woman's sober house. I said, no way. Some things in this world that are supposed to be good for you could actually turn out to be your hell.
"He would let you know that you just had a four-man train on you for $20. Now I want to get high to numb the pain." I gasped for air and started bawling. I could feel in my chest the pain and aggression this woman has. It was terrifying to hear that, and so hopeless to feel her in my heart so deep like that. I wish I could hug and hold her and tell her shes ok. Omg... My heart .... God bless her.
" I just wanna make it to 30 " omg breaking my heart !! I remember being totally hooked on hard drugs through my 20's thinking that exact same thing! Here I am now sober for a couple years and 2-3weeks away from having our 2nd child living a wonderful stress filled but love filled sober life! I really hope she finds a way out because it IS possible and we're ALL IMPORTANT AND WORTH IT!! 💜🙏🏻
@@coffeefish of course after all that not many can say they are anything......her story is intriguing and I hope nothing but the best for her although I know what statistics say.
In Saint Paul, MN I know a sober house that makes so much money off of housing deposits. The owner of this sober house company tells so many addicts at the treatment center all this bullshit to get them to pay a deposit which is $700-1000 plus first months rent. Then they relapse the next week and don’t get the deposit back. Then the next one comes in. So if you have 3-4 people relapsing a week at $2100-2800 a month per person. Most houses have 6-10 people living in them. A great business model if you ask me. There is always money to be made in sobriety.
The problem is they let literally anybody treat addiction. There isn't even an actual treatment. AA is a complete joke, but there isn't anything else. So any scam artist can set up and addiction treatment center, and they do.
But any AA group can be started and run by predatory types. I've been to plenty of church basements and I've seen some disgusting things. Some me go there with fake stories just to lure the weak into very sordid things. I don't want to say AA isn't helpful just be careful who you trust there.
No, Adrian, you're a complete fucking idiot who knows literally NOTHING about what AA is, and HOW IT WORKS. I attended my first AA meeting in 1980, and have now been sober since 1991. That's thanks to AA meetings, AA literature, a lot of good people, and working the 12Steps VERY HARD. Sure, there's fraudsters, scammers, and bad guys everywhere, even in AA. But for YOU to say that "AA is a complete joke" only PROVES that you're a complete fucking idiot. You're the idiot. You can't "treat addiction". Only the addict or alcoholic themselves can "treat" alcoholism or addiction. Everything else, and everybody else, is only SUPPORT. AA doesn't "treat" anything. RSVP?____________________?
@@silentumexcubitor6747... thanks for making my point for me. AA treats nothing. It isn't a treatment. And yet every one of these so-called treatment centers offers only one thing. AA. A complete joke.

This really hit home.. especially the sex Trafficking part.. I swear this is the worst thing anyone could experience.. definitely slavery. I’m proud of all the documentaries that are out, shedding light on the issue.. for some reason people in the U.S ‘act’ so obliviously to this... it could be happening in your backyard.
America is a great country, but there is evil wherever you go. You hardly see the people or organizations who are helping behind the scenes, but they are there. We all have to ask ourselves if we're doing anything -that's in our power- to help those in need.
"I destroy homes, tear families... apart - take your children, and that's just the start. I'm more costly than diamonds, more costly than gold - the sorrow I bring is a sight to behold. And if you need me, remember I'm easily found. I live all around you, in schools and in town. I live with the rich, I live with the poor, I live down the street, and maybe next door. My power is awesome - try me you'll see. But if you do, you may never break free. Just try me once and I might let you go, but try me twice, and I'll own your soul. When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie. You'll do what you have to just to get high. The crimes you'll commit, for my narcotic charms, will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms. You'll lie to your mother; you'll steal from your dad. When you see their tears, you should feel sad. But you'll forget your morals and how you were raised. I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways. I take kids from parents, and parents from kids, I turn people from God, and separate from friends. I'll take everything from you, your looks and your pride, I'll be with you always, right by your side. You'll give up everything - your family, your home, your friends, your money, then you'll be alone. I'll take and I'll take, till you have nothing more to give. When I'm finished with you you'll be lucky to live. If you try me be warned this is no game. If given the chance, I'll drive you insane. I'll ravish your body, I'll control your mind. I'll own you completely; your soul will be mine. The nightmares I'll give you while lying in bed. The voices you'll hear from inside your head. The sweats, the shakes, the visions you'll see. I want you to know, these are all gifts from me. But then it's too late, and you'll know in your heart, that you are mine, and we shall not part. You'll regret that you tried me, they always do. But you came to me, not I to you. You knew this would happen. Many times you were told, but you challenged my power, and chose to be bold. You could have said no, and just walked away. If you could live that day over, now what would you say? I'll be your master; you will be my slave. I'll even go with you, when you go to your grave. Now that you have met me, what will you do? Will you try me or not? Its all up to you. I can bring you more misery than words can tell. Come take my hand, let me lead you to hell." Signed DRUGS 😥

With all the energy in the world, and nothing bothered me... I could do it all!! Lol... When all of a sudden one day- the switch flipped and my brain said "hmmm, I kinda like this feeling, let's take 2 next time to see how that feels..." And I've been working like hell for almost 10 years now to teach my brain that- what it felt and what it wants/craves/thinks it needs... Is a lie! A big fat lie... I was 29 when I started to like those little pain pills too. A mother and wife... I'm not yet ready to admit where life took me because of it. But I'm really glad to hear your sober 2 years!! ❤❤❤ Keep it up mama!! You're an inspiration to more than you'll ever probably know. 😘
Addictive personalities for starters. Getting addicted is the easy part. Coming off that shit is the hardest. Never had an opiate addiction. To many friends and family were into it. I was warned never to do it more than 3 days or you’ll get a chippy. I was addicted to smoking coke not crack . I didn’t have a physical need like heroin gives you. It’s all in the mind. Anyways been clean for 15 yrs this past September.
Very sad that her dream is to see 30. I had started using later in life then most. Aroind 40. Started like most. Doctors office visit after a fender bender Then I reached the heroin for 4 months and then for help. I am a methadone patient now and have been for about 2 years. I have had a couple relapses very early on. I never talk about it and I have never posted about it as far as I recall until now.
Ma God bless you, I got addicted to opiates from a ACL knee surgery and one of my roommates told me to tell the doctor that the Percocets didn't work and to give me Dilaudid and I had no idea what any of it was so in the doctor gave me Dilaudid my roommate had a bag of syringes waiting when I got home and it was Game On from there, I've never talked about it either but I am a methadone patient now for about a year-and-a-half so far I have not relapsed but I'm wondering how I'm going to get off of the methadone I hate it I work outside and the methadone with the heat makes me really sick now and I've worked outside my whole life and never any problem so I started taking a liquid methadone from the clinic
@@mikewiley1652 I was on it to get off of pain medication. It takes time. Sometimes as long as you've been an addict. You need to wean yourself down at the clinic. Your councilor should be discussing this with you. Hopefully you are attending group meetings or one on one sessions on how you will remain clean and NEVER go backwards. I started at 100mgs and literally tapered down to 1mg and the next thing you know, you're done. it took a couple years but was worth the fight. The thing that really helped me was seeing kids as young as 18 (younger than my own kids) looking for help. I couldn't imagine my kids having to suffer what they or I had to go thru. Do everything in your power not to relaps or you will start the cycle all over again. And whatever you do, DO NOT jump off of Methadone for ANY reason! Even tho you may think you're ok at a low dose. I did that at 10 mgs and still felt withdrawls from it. When you get down to the 10 mg mark, wean slowly if you need to. Stay at 1mg for a few weeks if you have to. Some may say you are trading one drug (FUK THEM) for another but it sure beats doing heroin or pills and going thru the pain of not having the drug. You can function and go to work verses selling yourself like some do and living in pure HELL suffering "not to get high but to feel normal" One day you will look back and truly be proud of the person you were always meant to be. It CAN be done. YOU hold that power. Always remember that. I wish you luck :)
Yes, SO Sad! Actually, I got a new chance @life @33. Right as I was about to do the drugs at the end of my block. And soon after the last time my husband had choked me.... God (only voice that I c/trust as His, bcuz I thought it had the most Peace of them all) told me to go to Teen Challenge; I thought I was too old! But it's what I needed (adult program) as I was suicidal, taking antidepressants/ anti-anxiety medication and although I was a stay home mother of 4 and married, he didn't want me no more and was kicking me out after choking me every other year. Now I was not near perfect and had a lot of issues, too which spurned it-though there's no excuse! He'd also cheated. So instead of the drugs I followed & found Jesus, Love, Forgiveness, HOPE, Community, and the Daddy I was always missing. This community consisted of addicts, prostitutes, mothers, gang members, grandmothers, dealers, church people, sex slaves... and we all found New Life & Freedom together!! We're still connected even though I returned to my own state. And I know I am loved and have Purpose now! I've got a Daddy💖! +I reconciled with my children, parents and best friend. May this bring hope to anyone reading it. God restored my life at Freedom House Teen Challenge it is a safe place to get free and clear. And I I'm so glad I gave God what HE asked for and HE gave me more even though it looks different than what I would have thought. Better than death! -Azariah/SuburbaKnight Ps 20:1, 6-8; Is 43; Is 38:15-20; John 14:11-21
Freedom Capital Partners LLP Exactly. The more middle.men between a patient, doctor and insurance company the worse the fraud. Doctors used to make house calls for 10-20 dollars back in the day. Now if you spend one night in a hospital you may as well file bankruptcy. We need competition. We need as many insurance companies competing for buisness as possible. Medical insurance would be as cheap as.car imsurance.
@@frederickmuhlbauer9477 I'm sure there are. However, theway they use Florida to sell the rehab though I think is the thing that really bothers me. They will sell it as paradise, beaches, sun and sand and leave out the fact that Florida has a truly awful and significant drug problem of it's own and there are little to no actual schedules or programs in place and the "professionals" running these places are rarely qualified to run a 711 let alone a rehab.
I use to work as a BHT in Delray and Boynton and I stopped when I caught on to what was happening. One of my clients told me that my boss told them to relapse so that they wouldn’t get kicked out. She was from up north with no family down here. They lured her here and used her. I’ve seen people lives ruined because of this young kids as young as 16. I’ve seen death and cruel treatments. Everything in this video is 100% correct and there’s more.
I went to treatment in Delray and they weren't wanting to let anybody out after treatment, they wanted them to go to the halfway house in Boynton Beach I just wonder if they could have been involved?
@@cristy6513 I did a lot actually, the company was investigated and shutdown. As for the owners they were arrested but bonded out 300,000 bond. I was in my early 20’s working with people who needed help, most of them were my age or younger. I’ve heard the story from the first girl “Simone” personally and many other trafficking stories from so many women. It was more traumatic than working in a mental health hospital. I pray this girl is doing well. Such as beautiful soul ❤️
@Fat Pie put your self in her shoes before you spew hate maybe there is nothing worse then that to her yes there's many things that could be far worse but bringing each other down is what you aim to do by saying what you just said think about that

I went to rehab in Delray Beach this year and my insurance was billed almost $300,000. Luckily I wasn’t trafficked but there was DEFINITELY a lot of little stuff that make me question them after seeing this. I’d heard rumors but this is the most concrete thing I’ve seen...
This almost happened to me when i was sent to a facility in florida in the end of 2015. This shit is real and terrifying. You feel absolutely hopeless and lost and like nobody will ever help pull you out since nobody knows your even there in the first place. And many of the girls in the place i was at went thru this being trafficked and sent thru every facility in that state. At one of the facilities i was at they would stash drugs on the campus for us to relapse on so they would continue to get atleast another 6 more months of insurance out of us. This is real and disgusting and im glad someone is finally talking about it cause nobody believed me once i was FINALLY able to get back home to colorado...
@Mike tyson's disciple wit a rifle yeah , sex work is valid and is work there's just a huge difference between this and a Dominatrix or an upscale escort , it's so sad.
Legalize prostitution. Dont execute people for being pimps or johns. As long as all parties give their uncoerced informed consent they should b allowed to fuk for money. But rapists should go to labor prison for life. And people should not steal from others when they dont need to. And kidnapping people should be illegal. To try to help prevent people from being in bad situations where they might turn to prostitution as last resort to get their needs met: Convince gov to let everyone have an acre of free tax free fertile land to grow a food forest on and live on. End farm subsidies. End tax breaks to farms exsept those who grow healthy vegan food for human consumption exsept no large mono crops. End mandatory school, ged and hsd requirements, age limits, minimum wage, and exsessive regs. People should be able to learn how to do a good job they want so they can afford a house and car before 18. For those who and whos parents can afford it, tax deductible chairty and or the about 180,000dollars spent on k thru 12 per student could pay for it and trash k thru 12 and some of that money could be used to promote more independence and healthy living.
A A lot if these places don’t even implement real empirically supported treatment techniques. Good chunk of it is BS to waste time & money. They benefit off relapses & deaths.
Why does it seem like this kind of crap often originates in Florida? Weren't they also the epicenter of "pill mills" a few years back? Does anyone know or are my thoughts/beliefs correct??
Florida is the epicenter of scumbaggery in the US. I don't know why exactly, but so many of the crazy and fucked up news stories you hear about either happened in Florida or there is a Florida connection. Ohio and Texas have their fair share, but Florida is far and away number one when it comes to things like this.
You are. The problem is Florida has a physician board that runs the State. Now this means that the Dr.s can make more money by letting new regulations on new drugs. It's a sad fact. Now just like this strong beautiful woman said the trafficking is a huge problem beacuse the state is a tourist trap. Florida needs to step up big time and regulate this. I live in Massachusetts and I am seeing it more and more here. It's bad. We as a species need to come together and stop this problem. I lost my father to a opiate overdose and my wife lost her sister the same way. And between the two of us we have lost over a dozen good friends. If one person reads this let's try to help someone. It may save there life
As an addictions counselor, I can tell you that it's these types of horror stories that reminds our field of why we do what we do: 1. Endeavor to help resolve the client's needs... 2) And not just use them as a means to an end... a paycheck (for you). They know the difference; even if some of us, don't.
Only thing i dont understand is, well, for example, a friend of mine intentionally crashed his car for the insurance $. The insurance co. investigation was top notch, they busted him. How do they continue to get away with defrauding very powerful companies or institutions without getting busted and the story going mainstream? These companies have some very good lawyers working for them. Is it that they are all involved? Dissenters bribed, threatened, silenced, suicided etc.....hmmm
I went to an agency to get help with my rent. They kept trying to push me into parenting class and drug treatment class. I just needed help with my rent. Every week they drug tested me. Once, I looked at the name on the cup, it was someone else's name. I was angry. If I got someone else's urine cup, was someone else getting mine? I knew that I was clean; I didn't know about the other person.
You're not the only one to discover what and more has been revealed about them! You're darn right, and theyre not realizing they are blatantly wrong and ignorantly irresponsible, not at all right candidates to be handing out or handling ir custodians of any parents especially. I think one has to be mentally competent to a greater degree to be authorized for that stuff. But its widely not really vetted out and they dont really care.I dont care what anyone says to disagree, its just all scam and socialist ideology if not plain dangerously stupid. They act like putting our families at risk is not serious. It is and we know it. I cant wait until they are all kicked out and banned from the whole length of their dangerous and harming polital agendas which need to be faced down thru proper jurisdiction with real law, justice and responsible safety in care professions and institutions we can trust,clarified and beneficial to OUR common people's needs, legit and quality services, not stupid agendas for barely concealed and poorly trained or qualified fraudsters in huge mob of power seekers.
I think you should report this. Unscrupulous so-called treatment providers are stealing from the government, meanwhile, other people who really need the government to pay for treatment have a difficult time accessing funds.
Exactly... I was an addict for 12 years. Started with Meth,then Pills,back to Meth, then Heroin. I was a Meth & Heroin addict before I went to rehab in 2016'. I always tell friends and others struggling to not go to rehab for anyone else but themselves. I wanted to change & so I did & 2 & 1/2 years later I'm still clean. I've been asked by loved ones of family members who are addicts, how did you do it? How do you stay clean? etc. I tell them, "You gotta want it"!! You can yell & scream at them all you want & try to change a loved one who's an addict... But until they want it... It'll never happen. Sad truth!!
7:37 this is a HUGELY eye opening and much needed video. This could truly save lives and I’m sure it has. With that being said, you shouldn’t have named the school that the young woman is attending. Her safety could possibly be jeopardized by her past captures seeing this.
when "simone" talks about being sold for 20 dollars and had 4 men blow a train thru her and how she takes the bleach bath . i just had tears fall down my face . its one of the saddest, most horrific thing I've ever heard it broke my heart.
Stargate Keeper - I didn’t say she should be silenced.... And shouldn’t o have a a right to express myself? You didn’t understand my comment, and your selectively allowing people to express themselves? You’re a moron.
@@grasakfairy8969 So you expressed yourself... Calling me names only showed your character... Vibrate higher and you'd understand why I wrote what I did 👁
Lol.yeah cuz that's gonna help...... I'm sure they prayed the first 5 days they were taken. Praying dont do shit. Getting off our lazy ass and DOING SHIT ON OUR OWN does
I'm 36 years old and have lived in Florida my entire life and I never knew any of this was going on until I saw this. I'm so disgusted with my state and if you're reading this in 2020 you'll understand even more why I am so ashamed to call this horrible state my home 🤦🏼♀️🤯😢
courtney, 2022 now & the Disney news just floored the world.... i hope that some of those caught were from the sober houses. it is extremely disturbing but, girl...this world is corrupt clear to the bone & getting worse. it's just a reminder that the only escape is Heaven! & the only way to get THERE is by believing in the Jesus of the Holy Bible! He will forgive ANYTHING we will confess and will turn awaay from. He will save us from a hell that's even worse than this. and His Heaven is even BETTER than hell is bad! Grab onto Him, courtney! He will come for us soon from all indications around us. and as long as you have faith in Him you know that you will go to Heaven the instant you die! if you'll start reading the New Testament you'll be learning about the way outta this world alive by the one & only key to Heaven. there is absolutely no other way to get there but by Jesus. He died to pay for OUR sins! i hope you'll ask Him to be your Savior & start going to church to learn all about Him & be part of His world. Baptist churches are good but, the Church of God or the Foursquare are great. take ahold & find hope that's better than you can imagine! God be with you.
@@JoaniesJourney 🤣 um ok... I was born here and have no intentions on moving. I had just watched this video and was clearly very frustrated when I wrote that comment...almost 2 years ago! If you remember correctly this was also when covid had just hit, and Florida was basically ignoring all safety advice and guidelines 🙄 I'm guessing with you getting so unnecessarily defensive over a state that you must either run one of these "halfway houses" or some other type of business here that's taking advantage of the locals in some way or another. That's what you "go be happy somewhere else" type of ppl do. Remember that literally every one of us is entitled to an opinion and also free to share it. You're not going to like or agree with everyone's opinions... But we're all still entitled to one.
@@courtneylia7383 LOTS of words to say "We're not going to like or agree with everyone's opinion..." when I literally just gave an OPINION on a public post you made. 🤷🤦 BTW... Florida didn't ignore all safety advice and guidelines. Fortunately we have a Governor that has a few brain cells to rub together and actually LEAD instead of try and DICTATE.
The insurance companies need to stop paying for all of these tests and when they do they need to regulate how many tests they can give a week and the cost is to be no more than a store bought test. They need to heavily regulate these sober living facilities and inspect them often.
Actually, insurance companies will not pay for every UA tests done. There is a cap on how many tests that will be paid. I do billing and insurance collections.
Is nobody going to mention that this is just a good example of bad public policy? With good intentions yes but poor oversight and lack of rules/foundation lead to this today. And wtf are insurance companies doing paying 1500 for a piss test. You can literally buy the test at the dollar store. I’m not sure what I’m more mad about insurance scamming good people or shit public policy
Agreed Will. I knew Kenny and lived in one of his houses in 2016. I met his wife, and kids. I had my own car and phone, came and left as I pleased. He had control issues for sure, but to this day I'm not sure I completely believe all those stories about him. Let's not forget he just provided what there was a market for. A lot of these kids WANTED places they could live for free, fuckaround, get high, work at the strip club, and what not. I know because I saw it happen guys. I was there. Never saw girls tied to beds, but there were definatly always rumors of it.,
I'll never forget picking up an old roommate who I hadn't seen in years called on me. I picked her up from this house in Delray. She's passed away. This wicked dude worked in the court system. She was ordered in rehab, and that's where he's prey on the week. She would earn a little side income staying at this dude's place and by some medicine with it. He would steal it and trade it for bad drugs...she was a drug addict and had trouble resisting... And would next to blackout being gangraped by group of men filming it and all. She was kept like property....I helped her go away from that dude's place...but she ended up dead in the long run. These predators are in the system. Theirs lawyers, psychologist, drug court order people etc. Oh yeah Jeff Epstein's county. No news here
A made up "monster" has nothing to do w this. Its pieces of shit who exploit ppl for whatever the reason that you need to protect yourselves from. & there's no shortage of them out here. LOTS of pieces of shits, no devils.
Well how do you make sure some of these rehab places are real or legit? I think these people who are trafficking women should serve a life sentence. They destroyed so many lives these women will never be the same again.
It's actually the opposite; state and Federal governments want as many people as possible depending on them. Medicaid /Medicare and other healthcare subsidies, while much needed by individuals who are retired and /or unable to work, has expanded substantially to covering children, young adults, and the working class. Essentially a giant pool of people that governments have detailed information on and can be shared amongst the individual insurance carriers (Fidelis, United Healthcare etc.) offered through Medicaid/Medicare. When you have public subsidies, the standard for quality is extremely low. We need to stop incentivizing being low income and get people back to earning an income. There are young women who come from generations of government dependency and they see that they can have free food, free cell phone, free healthcare, and a monthly income check. they end up having more than any of us footing the bill for these subsidies.
@@mwiluokolo9559 there will always be a need for health insurance but if it's coming out of my pocket whether as a copay or premium, we don't need our government taking more money from our taxes to pay for free healthcare for other people. The extent of the government's involvement should be limited to regulation of billing practices. Those who are supporting this "Medicare for all" idea don't understand that the issue of affordability has always resolved itself by way of competition between insurance providers. Insurance companies make their money off premiums so the more policyholders they have, the more competitive the rates become. Obama screwed everyone over by penalizing anyone who doesn't have insurance coverage and by making it impossible for employers with a small staff to offer health insurance benefits. As a result, employees were forced to purchase insurance outside of their employers or be penalized. It comes down to handouts, people have become so accustomed to government handouts that the idea of being a productive member of society is like a foreign concept. Statistically, the number of able bodied people who refuse to work and instead live off the system far outweighs the number of people who actually need it. It was never intended to be a permanent solution at the taxpayers expense.
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 how should physicians, radiologists, surgeons, etc. be paid? Free med school? Who pays for that if medical care is offered as a free service? These are just a small portion of the problems with healthcare and why there has to be a competitive market. In the auto insurance industry, at least in NY, there is an assigned risk pool for drivers who aren't able to get an insurance policy because they're considered high risk. In order to ensure that every driver has coverage to meet the minimum requirements, insurance companies are required to insure a certain number of those who are in the assigned risk pool. A similar regulation could be done for individuals who don't qualify for standard health insurance. While Medicaid/Medicare is typically seen as the answer, it has turned the healthcare industry upside down and caused the inflation in healthcare costs. There are so many people dependent on it now as a result of Obamacare and the incentivizing of government subsidies that's it's impossible for healthcare providers to provide affordable care. Hence why the more reputable doctors and surgeons don't accept Medicaid; the reimbursement rate is extremely low.
I'm so thankful my Grandmother prayed for me constantly while I was using. My last overdose I heard God tell me it was the last time and never used again. I pray that anyone struggling with addiction reach out to God for help. My heart breaks for these girls, boys, women, and men. I hope they stay on top of ridding the world of those responsible for this atrocity. Blessings, love, and healing to all those struggling.
woodpecker, .. if you really looked at her expression, the smile was to hide her tears & shame! don't judge. we all have to learn to navigate life on our own & it takes some ppl longer than others. some fail for various reasons but, they are still vsaluable treasures in the making.
I am from Florida & once an addict, always an addict. If your not using anymore, that's fantastic. However, the addiction still somewhere in your conscious or unconscious, whether we want it to be or not. Everyone's stories are so relatable. I'll keep it 100. I'll be praying for everyone out there who is or has also gone through these same events. Good bless the ° sisterhood° and all the others that have... Walked.... The United States shuffle.
Honey it was CREATED at the government level. It’s working to their plans, perfectly. As well as the giant corps who RUN the government. BTW America is a literal corporation, as well. Real shit.. This world is fucked and we all jus bend over and do nothing. Wanting someone else to do something
I could never figure out Why these places get away with charging these outrageous prices for a 30 day detox!?!! It's criminal! This shouldn't be a moneymaking business!
I’m going to be perfectly honest. You know the things Larry Nassar’s victims said about how USAG was complicit? That’s how the rehab industry is - and that’s what it is. At a time when this country needs adequate treatment more than ever, we have a non-science based, unquestioned treatment model that isolated addicts from people close to them when they relapse - which they inevitably will, and.... shit, I’m glad my coke addiction ended before this hustle started. I was a young kid who got sent from treatment center to treatment center bc I had good insurance...smh... this is the most disgusting predatory shit I’ve ever heard, but it’s happening bc of a disgusting, predatory treatment model that doesn’t fucking work.
I think as was highlighted in the video, the regulation of illegal practices in rehabs was lagging a great deal - sad to me that the Healthcare for all model was so easily used to do irreparable harm.
nismo510 You can call me I'm naïve, and tell me worser things happen in the world everyday, that doesn't mean this is acceptable, and I should be laid back about it. For me, it's unacceptable, all ways.
I went to a real government funded rehab facility and my ex went to one of these homes in west palm beach in 2015. I remember when he'd tell me he was getting massages and allowed to leave and go out and i was soooo jealous. He outrighttold me that this was what was going on. Im so glad I didn't have insurance and was treated by people who actually cared. I was one of the last groups of women to receive help from them before their doors closed due to not enough help from government. Meanwhile these people were lining their pockets and killing people! So sad
There's darkness and sadness in all parts of the world; the poorer the country the worse it is but I truly believe there's more good in this world than bad.
I struggle with depression and anxiety. PTSD from childhood abuse and complex PTSD from being held hostage and experiencing every form of violence and trauma imaginable as an adult. I have voluntarily gone in to the hospital on several occasions over the past 20 years. This is what I have experienced and seen: Antipsychotics prescribed to everyone for everything. They are used for depression, anxiety, sleep. . . It's always antipsychotics first everything. A few months ago I went to a 24 hour access center because an insurance change had left me off meds. The nurse there was encouraging me to take Saphrys. She was marveling about how wonderful it was for anxiety. She had No idea that she was pushing an antipsychotic until I informed her that Saphrys was one. Everyone is given antipsychotics. This is go make everyone submissive and treatment compliant. Your treatment plan is determined by insurance coverage. My insurance covers 9 days. So for a week they act concerned, day 8 they start telling me how well I've done, how ready to be discharged and day 9 I am out the door. I have met people in hospitals who are court ordered or have the right insurance who are there for months. Taking antipsychotics and pacing the halls. I was surprised that counseling or psychotherapy are no longer offered. They no longer even pretend to care how you feel. The treat model is to pump people so full of antipsychotics that they don't notice or care that they are not receiving any professional help and that instead of therapy, a bunch of 18-20 year old minimum wage psych techs are condescending to them. I hope I never have to go to the hospital again. If my anxiety or PTSD get so bad I can't stand it, I will go to a 24 hour access center, the a dose or 2 of antipsychotics to shut it down, and then leave as quickly as possible. I will never go inpatient again. Fuck that humiliation.
I was in an inpatient hospital for 5 months but I was a teenager. My mom had good insurance and that's probably why they kept me so long. Everybody else got out super quick whether they had progress or not. It didn't help at all though.
I like how well informed the Mayor is about thousands of locations, and he is so nonchalant like it will never change. To him it's an accepted fact of life.
OMG !!!! I am SOOOO sorry for those victims who were tricked this way. Opportunists, scammers, criminal offendors are everywhere and are so cunning and manipulative ! Preyed on desperate people seeking help. Speechless !!!
I left Florida in 2013 because of this. it was scary. I went there for treatment and ended up almost loosing my life because of people that specifically look for out of town drug addicts fresh from rehab.
Ur stupid as fuck.. The war on drugs is a loss. Its caused more death and destruction than its ever did help. Trump is dumb as fuck too so he probably will push the war even harder.
The saddest thing is many of the women that you see on the Highways are there through force and guess who gets in trouble for it? Not the pimps, not the police who turn a blind eye, not the judicial system. The woman who can not get any help from anyone. Certainly not the man who pays for her body. I cant even watch this so my comment may be unrelated to the actual story. I just know there is little hope out there for anyone who was forced into this sort of life as once you catch a charge you will never work a legit job again. Even if you get someone to hire you without checking your record if the police know you got a legit job they will go and tell your employer to keep you on the streets, on drugs and in and out of jail. Florida is a terrible place to be a victim in
I wish ppl would stop calling these sex traffickers "pimps". The real pimps and hookers get arrested meanwhile the sex traffickers are still out kidnapping and abducting women and children... That's who the police turn a blind eye to because many times they are in on it!
It’s sickening how widespread this is. I worked in a bad area of Daytona and all the girls were shocked that I treated them like people. I knew one girl who told me she was a Schizophrenic and her “man” was taking all the money she’d make and force her to get high so her friends could take turns. She always stuck in my mind because you could tell she was more physically worn from the abuse than the drugs. It’s a real hell hole we live in
This situation would not exist if you had universal single payer health care like the rest of the civilised world. Americans deserve better than this awful health profiteering.
Absolutely not. Watch the video called "the truth about universal healthcare". I personally know 2 people who have died because they went to the ER and waiting times/resources are so limited that they couldn't get treatment in time/ at all. Waiting times in Canada are often 10 hours, and then you only see a nurse once you get in. To see a private doctor, it can be 800-1000 dollars just for the initial appointment, without any treatment, and it can take months waiting in line to get something as simple as a blood work up (or any kind follow up treatment). Haven't you heard of "death committees"? The board of people who decide if you will be able to get cancer treatment, for example? Universal health care means very limited resources. Doctors don't get paid enough, so there are very little doctors. So instead, most people wait hours for pretty much no care. You can't choose to get bloodwork for the hell of it in places like Canada, you can't even get cancer treatment by your own choice when you're gonna die. The answer is to get government completely out of healthcare. I also lived in the Philippines and ANYONE can go to the hospital, no insurance needed, and get QUALITY care for very, very cheap. For example, an Xray there cost me 6$ without any insurance. In the States my doctor charges 300$ (insurance covered most of it, but for those without insurance, that is the price). I was in the Philippines because my dad is a pilot. Now that were back in the US, most of our FedEx pilots STILL fly to Thailand if they need in detail checkups (with MRIs, full scans, in-body camera check ups, etc.), surgeries, or whatever. Why? Because the plane tickets plus the medical care over there is still cheaper than just the medical care bill in the States. And in universal healthcare countries like Canada or in Europe, you can't ELECT to have medical care/random check ups, and even if you really need it, you still likely won't get it. In the US, your insurance often decides for you what medical care you are able to receive. Most people just think "free care? Of course!" But they don't take into account the facts. With free/universal health care, there often is not enough care to go around. And factually, many people never get any care whatsoever. Real people are dying because of universal healthcare. That's why we need to get government OUT of healthcare and do it like Thailand, for example. In the free market, customers would go to the doctors offices with the lowest price and the highest quality care. Doctors with high prices or shitty quality care will lose all their customers, and therefore more doctors will start to offer good prices and good care. Keep in mind that most doctors are slaves to insurance/pharmaceutical companies. With insurance companies out of the picture, prices would drop significantly. If they didnt drop, they would get no customers, ever. So, they would HAVE TO drop. Doctors and pharmaceutical companies wouldn't base their prices off of the fact that large portions of the population DO have insurance, and therefore they wouldn't be able to charge astronomical prices. Prices would go way down, quality would go way up, and the free market (aka customer satisfaction/customer choice) would drive the market, and therefore fix the prices. And obviously, the enormous taxes everyone pays toward universal healthcare would be put back in their pockets. I understand most people have only lived in one country and may not have experience or may not have done lots of research on the topic, but people are dying left and right due to universal healthcare. Just because they say it's free doesn't mean it's good care, or that most people get ANY care at all. Again, I know real people who have died because they couldn't get any treatment. I also know incredibly poor people in the Philippines who can get QUALITY care anytime they need it, for a low price, including with no wait times (all with NO insurance companies involved). It is the best system because, yes, everyone does deserve to have access to health care. And that's why government needs to get out of healthcare. Universal countries have real people dying left and right, while free market healthcare countries like the ones I mentioned provide good, cheap healthcare to ANYONE that needs it. I encourage you to watch the video I mentioned. Its a good short video. I really wish people would do some research before supporting something that is keeping people sick, and even killing them.
@@lsnprice LSN92 but for sure for philipinos or the local the health care still expensive! You can say its cheaper since the currency and income rate is different. I got private insurance but my government also require kind of universal healthcare, which cost 2% of our income or max. $7/month. Its not the best but I think its works! I can easily meet the doctor only by making online appointment in the same day and get medicine and the treatment. Even I can get transfer to higher hospital for serious illness. And alot of people use it to get monthly check up for their kids and get free vitamins 😊 but... Well i understand your point by having an option. And that's why I also have private insurance, soo I can have more options and second or third opinions.
For anyone struggling with addiction. .. You can have it, share it, save it, believe it. Love and blessings going out to you all. In a world that can seem full of gloom and doom, it's often hard to get past that spoon. Some will say it's how I deal, but as we heal we know what's real. Real is hurt and pain and strife and once we know this we get the knife. This knife is for cutting the ties that bind and releasing old hurts that are yours and mine. One day we will look and see a fork and this is used to dig up that dirt,we make a hole and place that hurt , put it all in there that just don't work. Just bury that pain and walk away,there is no good in revisiting and living it over and over each day. We find our strength with each renewed day and with it comes joy and hope,these are the feelings that stay. These feelings we get when we know true love ,a love that that comes from up above,will keep us grounded and strong through the trials, as we walk our walk those lonely miles. Just know that within you there is much strength,that if you laid it down mile for mile it covers that trench. Ya never have to jump it ever again,you been made new by Christ Amen and Amen
Omg! I was lured to Florida for suboxone treatment! I didn't go because I found it in my state,plus the man I spoke to was shady as hell and I my gut said NOPE. SOOOOO GLAD I NEVER WENT TO HOLLYWOOD FLORIDA REHAB. Thank u JESUS.
Doug Noble methadone....6 years I’ve been on it I’ve never relapsed but at my most I was on 200mg and I’m now down to 30. I hope to b off by this year. I really wish I had done my research before getting on it. I was only taking a few Percocet a day so I should have just dealt with the withdrawal. They don’t tell you how hard it is to get off.
Babii Brit I’m not going thru anything right now I just know when I’m down to 0 it’s going to be hard from everything I’ve heard it’s nothing nice. But I gotta do it. My life is great but who wants to go to a clinic the rest of their life.I hope they come out with a non habit forming drug for opiate addiction soon I think it would help so many people.
The fact that i live so close to these places makes me scared for my life. And I’m not even an addict. I can’t imagine the fear these vulnerable people feel when they realize what they got into.
It was. Kenny chatman was an asshole to all of us girls. We went here seeking helo just so they could do us so dirty. Smh. Thank u for showing ur love.
Vanessa B. Well good luck honey. You have to realize that to be in social work today unfortunately does not mean that you're going to be doing the right thing by people. It's not going to be about where your heart lies. You're going to have to do what the system tells you just like they will and if you don't play ball you'll be fired and you'll never work in social work again. They will blackball you just like the scientists who have told us that climate change is a lie just like most of the things that science tells us they get blackballed and will never work in their industry again. I don't know about you but after you spent four years or more earning your education and degree and spending upwards of $100,000 on your education are you going to throw it all away? Most people don't. Most people jump on the bandwagon and do what they're told like good little soldiers. That is what keeps this world turning. And it's a damn shame.
This is what a private health care system results in!! Serves the private insurance companies right!! A,m I supposed to feel sorry for the poor insurance companies?? When you don't make it a human right to have good health coverage, when you have a FOR-PROFIT system, that's exactly what's going to happen -- FOR PROFIT for anyone who can figure out a way to do it.
LOL you called it a 'private healthcare system'. we do not have a 'private healthcare system' ---at all. If you watch the video you will see this problem happened because the 'affordable health care act' that mandates 'private' insurance companies to pay for 'rehab', of drug addiction which... is not a disease, that has any proven treatment---made a free for all, for anybody to say, we 'treat' addicts, and charge your private company as long as you stay sick. This is the worst marriage of 'private' enhanced 'social' healthcare imaginable. And don't think they didn't know what would happen when they signed this turd of a law. It worked for everybody but the working tax payer. If you disagree, wake the up.
The US doesn't have a private healthcare. It was only ACA that let it be more profitable. Nevertheless, Human trafficking is going to happen regardless of Healthcare.
southern mediator In Canada our healthcare is covered without the need of insurance companies. You go to the hospital, the government foots the bill. It’s a single payer system, and therefore it’s hard to exploit. Hospitals are publicly funded, therefore they don’t charge $20 for a single halls drop. Without private hospitals or private insurance, there’s no money to be made off people’s health issues.
Omg thank you for posting this I looked online for a rehab , they wanted to put him on a flight tmr. Since he did his assessment today , we all agreed I came home to do more research and seen this ..we canceled the trip!!!! Thank god for this post!! I had no idea, stuff like this even happened smh this is insane. To pry on already venerable lives is sick n shitty.

These insurance companies pay out easily to false treatment centers but refuse to pay out for legitimate claims by individuals. smh.
Cary Ulmer this!
It's not that they pay out easily it's that these people have figured out exactly how to make the paperwork exactly correct to get what they want... that's the issue with our medical system its based on red tape and if you know how the system works you can take advantage of it Meanwhile it leaves people who are going through a hard time with illness and also trying to navigate their insurance in a field of red tape... these scam artists are doing the paperwork on the addicts behalf and they do it every day all day they know how to make it look like its legitimate and that's the issue! what's worse is treatment is the only real solution to the drug epidemic we have in this country jail and prison doesn't have any effect on it and it's far more costly than a decent treatment program too... we need to as a country invest in a policy of treatment that is well regulated by both insurance and government... there are effective and time tested treatments that work like a methadone program that includes counseling and medication therapy its been used with much higher success rates then inpatient treatment detox centers for decades yet we continue to increase our idea of "drying out" addicts and putting them back in their old situation and expecting them to be fixed because they spend 28, or 90 days in a locked up house that we call a "treatment facility" addiction is no different from any other type of illness it requires medical treatment and usually it's a long term plan not 28 days of no drugs and they are cured!
Elizabeth Ferguson My point was really about how much they fight the individual who has a legitimate claim & try to convince people they don't have to pay out. Big entities like insurance companies know they have more power than an individual citizen & they use that unfairly. I've advocated for many people & have seen this repeatedly.

The medical insurance business in this country is despicable.
Thats why we need universal health care.
Yeah this is what the entire Democratic party makes money from..
@@johnroberts4571 No. If the republicans werent against healh care for everyone this shit wouldnt happen. This is what happens when you let Insurance companies run things.
And then politicians wanna say private insurance is the bestbfor america and to provide proof that universal health is better. And when you show them they say its a lie or say that thousands will die because they will take away insurance if we change it , that they do it for the benefit of the people. I guess they are probably referring it benefits the people on the top 1% , if thats the case then yeah, they are not lying.
@@Piti2X Exactly. You are 100% correct.
This is horrible! So why is this not in the media? This is the type of stuff we need to be informed of on tv. I am so sorry for these victims may God protect them.

27 years? It should be life. Period.

I almost got trafficked by a guy who was supposedly my friend we went to Vegas we went to a hotel and there was 4 guys waiting saying that If i didnt go down there and make some money they would hurt me. So I went down and ran away from the hotel walked 2 miles to the greyhound station and never looked back. It was scarring. I'm happy I got away very thankful.
did you report them

As a counselor who really cares about the kids we treat, i am just sick. We can hardly get extra funding from insurance companies when our kids need it. To see people taking advantage of system that is to be helping people treat and recover, is pure evil. The trafficking is just worst then evil.

It's always been fucked. History repeats itself
Omar Alvarez, it left when the American government kicked God out of everything and invited Satan to run the show. Satan is just doing the only thing he ever comes to do, which is to kill, steal, and destroy. How much humanity can you expect from a nation that fights to keep a law in place that allows it to murder millions of unborn babies with beating hearts every year by ripping them apart limb by limb in abortions? Those babies are alive, they feel pain, yet Americans BEG to keep the right to murder the unborn created by God and they celebrate when science “discovers new life” by finding a new bacterium. Something is terribly wrong with this nation’s definition of LIFE! 🤨
No ones noticed but humanity is packed and gone......Was it ever here at all?

They're all good people baby! What people aren't seeing is Why do people use drugs in the first place?!!? I believe that because of the way the world is.... it's set up so that people who aren't super strong, fail... and those who don't have the drive to make it rich, are losers! Hollywoods grasp on the young human mind has racked up so many failures and Hollywood just spits them out, but there are only a few success stories in comparison!!!

@cindybin2001 P.S.the dealer will deliver to you in 1 hour or less.( most of the time) By the way the police know all about this but it's too big to do anything about plus most of the dealers are lets say "darker" so they don't want to open up that can of worms. PEACE be upon us all.
At some point an addict needs to decide what they want. Life and death is merely a choice.

I dont blame her
Now, being 6 years clean and looking back, realizing I had someone trying to get me to go to a " treatment house " in Florida was probably one of these horrible situations. That's terrifying.
Right? I used to watch that show Intervention and now I’m thinking of all the rehabs in Florida they were sent to
Brought it up to my halfway house manager, the upper people (housing, CEO, basically everyone who worked there) they said it was scary but acted like they didn’t believe me and claimed they lost his name and paperwork.
As someone who has battled addiction and successfully quit, this just makes me soo angry. These scammers preying on the desperation of addicts who are actually trying to get better. The whole rehab industry is a scam, from insurance, to kickbacks and patient brokering. The addicted person must have a personal motivation to successfully break the addiction. Most people I know that have recovered successfully, were able to do so on their own, with support from their loved ones. No rehabs, no IOC, no sober homes. All you need is the desire.
personal motivation is useless when you are talking about neurons, some addicts possibly most of them are..
Eric Lee s
I've been sober 7 years. Suboxone saved my life I did a 9 month program. Thing is I want in asking to taper down. If you don't do it the docs won't either. Then you and up with people in suboxone clinics 5+ years. They trace on addiction for another. Though it's better that being a full blown addict. Your still addicted to a substance. You have to have the desire to be clean and the willpower to follow through.
Congratulations on getting and staying off drugs. I was never an addict, but there have been times when I drank heavily. I cured myself by working 60 - 80 hours a week for several years, and investing my earnings. As a result, I got my life together to the point where I no longer want to block things out. I rarely drink, and I do no drugs, not even pot.
Eric Lee horrifying 😭
The governor of FL tried passing a bill for welfare users to have to take mandatory drug tests. He ownes several testing places. It starts at top. The monster criminals make the laws. Peace.
That's really how it starts. Everyone thinks thier doctors are so noble and ethical. Not!!!! I work for Medicare and I used to work for Medicaid. they do the same thing, they have businesses that they refer thier patients to, It's fraudulent as hell. It's out of control.
Nurse Bennie Sure. And, let's not forget that it is often the doctor who intentionally over prescribes opioids and has those same patients standing on long lines every month so that the doctor can bill insurance companies. Many pain clinics are in the business to get repeat customers via addiction.
@@schoomzer you know it. They sure do. They are partners in that pain clinic and people don't know that. It's illegal for your doctor to refer you to a clinic that he owns or has an interest in.
Making money from Medicare fraud
And the majority passed the drug test which resulted in tax payers footing the bill for all the drug tests.
I know a family whose insurance was legit being billed $24,000 a month for the daughter’s drug testing while she staying at a halfway house. It’s unbelievable

Welcome to America where the only thing that matters is money
Literally !
England's NHS isn't much better. They send you to specialists or doctors make needless appointments that don't offer any real or remarkable treatment. The GP I had used to urge me to make more appointments to see him and when I went to the appointments it was just the same old useless information and ineffective medicine. But the doctors get paid. At one point, the clinic receptionists would call me to make appointments. A few times they made appointments without my knowledge and agreement. It's not about good medical outcomes.
Welcome to planet Earth we're the only thing that means anything is money why would America be any different than the rest of the world,,,,,,,,,
Alcohol is the root cause of this epidemic. Religion is absent and the family structure is gone. Most are white.

THIS is pure evil. We need more ACTION against this people.
Let the world know what these people do to other human beings. People with experiences and memories as complex as you yourself are. They are being treated like objects. This is inexcusable.
Sad truth is unless major policy makers focus attention towards this issue it will continue to be common place in Florida and globally. The sex/drug trade industry is worth billions and billions of dollars with some very powerful behind the scenes people pulling strings. So yeah not to be a debby-downer, but the chances of any major changes happening are very slim. Since the people who ultimately profit from these unfortunate souls whether government officials or crime lords will still want their paycheck at the end of the day..
Awareness of these issues can bring about change if enough people use their voices. People seeking help should never be exploited.

Matthew 13:24-30
Another parable He put forth to them, saying: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. So the servants of the owner came and said to him, ‘Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?’ He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’ But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, “First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.” ’ ”
I am 16 months sober from drugs and alcohol. My life is beginning to turn around and I credit the Veterans Administration for giving me the time, as well as, place to heal and recover from the cycle of addiction. Being a veteran and having access to federally funded rehabilitation programs has insulated me from evil scumbags who prey upon those suffering from the disease of addiction. The actions of the predators described in this video are deplorable and frightening. My heart goes out to anyone who fell victim to these scam artists. I hope every scumbag who is found guilty of the crimes described in this video get buried beneath the prisons they will soon find themselves struggling to survive in!!!
Congratulations on your sobriety the lord Jesus saved me from alcoholism. It’s hard and the devil wants you to relapse and go back but Jesus over came the world and you can to! I pray your victorious in your battle.

I've seen questionable sober houses in upstate New York. A couple were owned and run by so-called Christians, people who wouldn't even provide the basics yet took all their clients' benefits. Everybody is not able to nor should be allowed to open a sober house.
Omg I went to rehab their and they wanted me to stay in a sober living house I said nope going back home and by the grace of God 4 yrs sober. I learned the tools to keep me clean but I always felt something shady with the sober living houses people where relapsing and dying . I felt enough wasn't done to keep these kids clean.
It is hard to stay clean if you don't want to
You have the gift of discernment. Thank God.
Proud of you stay strong I know it's not easy, but many blessings to you.
My son also was there in 2015/16 and lived in or very close to, that neighborhood! He was doing great until around the 6 month mark they called me and said he failed a drug test. He flipped out and said it was bullsh!t and demand a retest. They said no & God have to start all over again. I know my son well..and know when hes lying and this time I could tell he wasnt lying. At this point, If he relapsed, he'd be remorseful & admit it. But he was actually crying in the phone with me and yelling at the counselor asking her WHY ARE YOU GUYS DOING THIS TO ME! I had this awful gut feeling. I told him to get out of there immediately and then call me. I found him a redeye flight home the next day. A year later it shut down..surprise suprise.
When I first got sober,I mean really made a decision to stop, a friend of mine tried to talk me into moving out of my apartment and into some woman's sober house. I said, no way. Some things in this world that are supposed to be good for you could actually turn out to be your hell.
"He would let you know that you just had a four-man train on you for $20. Now I want to get high to numb the pain." I gasped for air and started bawling. I could feel in my chest the pain and aggression this woman has. It was terrifying to hear that, and so hopeless to feel her in my heart so deep like that. I wish I could hug and hold her and tell her shes ok. Omg... My heart .... God bless her.

All these sober houses are money rackets idgaf what anyone says
I just left one and if you miss a pee test, they’ll kick you out. The counselor would shake the empty container and go “time to pay the bills”
In Saint Paul, MN I know a sober house that makes so much money off of housing deposits. The owner of this sober house company tells so many addicts at the treatment center all this bullshit to get them to pay a deposit which is $700-1000 plus first months rent. Then they relapse the next week and don’t get the deposit back. Then the next one comes in. So if you have 3-4 people relapsing a week at $2100-2800 a month per person. Most houses have 6-10 people living in them. A great business model if you ask me. There is always money to be made in sobriety.

The problem is they let literally anybody treat addiction. There isn't even an actual treatment. AA is a complete joke, but there isn't anything else. So any scam artist can set up and addiction treatment center, and they do.
A.A. doesn't make any money
But any AA group can be started and run by predatory types. I've been to plenty of church basements and I've seen some disgusting things. Some me go there with fake stories just to lure the weak into very sordid things. I don't want to say AA isn't helpful just be careful who you trust there.
No, Adrian, you're a complete fucking idiot who knows literally NOTHING about what AA is, and HOW IT WORKS.
I attended my first AA meeting in 1980, and have now been sober since 1991.
That's thanks to AA meetings, AA literature, a lot of good people, and working the 12Steps VERY HARD.
Sure, there's fraudsters, scammers, and bad guys everywhere, even in AA.
But for YOU to say that "AA is a complete joke" only PROVES that you're a complete fucking idiot.
You're the idiot. You can't "treat addiction". Only the addict or alcoholic themselves can "treat" alcoholism or addiction.
Everything else, and everybody else, is only SUPPORT. AA doesn't "treat" anything. RSVP?____________________?

I’m proud of all the documentaries that are out, shedding light on the issue.. for some reason people in the U.S ‘act’ so obliviously to this... it could be happening in your backyard.
Truth!
America is a great country, but there is evil wherever you go. You hardly see the people or organizations who are helping behind the scenes, but they are there. We all have to ask ourselves if we're doing anything -that's in our power- to help those in need.

@Big Master wow!
"I destroy homes, tear families... apart - take your children, and that's just the start.
I'm more costly than diamonds, more costly than gold - the sorrow I bring is a sight to behold.
And if you need me, remember I'm easily found.
I live all around you, in schools and in town.
I live with the rich, I live with the poor, I live down the street, and maybe next door.
My power is awesome - try me you'll see.
But if you do, you may never break free.
Just try me once and I might let you go, but try me twice, and I'll own your soul.
When I possess you, you'll steal and you'll lie.
You'll do what you have to just to get high.
The crimes you'll commit, for my narcotic charms, will be worth the pleasure you'll feel in your arms.
You'll lie to your mother; you'll steal from your dad.
When you see their tears, you should feel sad.
But you'll forget your morals and how you were raised.
I'll be your conscience, I'll teach you my ways.
I take kids from parents, and parents from kids, I turn people from God, and separate from friends.
I'll take everything from you, your looks and your pride, I'll be with you always, right by your side.
You'll give up everything - your family, your home, your friends, your money, then you'll be alone.
I'll take and I'll take, till you have nothing more to give.
When I'm finished with you you'll be lucky to live.
If you try me be warned this is no game.
If given the chance, I'll drive you insane.
I'll ravish your body, I'll control your mind.
I'll own you completely; your soul will be mine.
The nightmares I'll give you while lying in bed.
The voices you'll hear from inside your head.
The sweats, the shakes, the visions you'll see.
I want you to know, these are all gifts from me.
But then it's too late, and you'll know in your heart, that you are mine, and we shall not part.
You'll regret that you tried me, they always do.
But you came to me, not I to you.
You knew this would happen.
Many times you were told, but you challenged my power, and chose to be bold.
You could have said no, and just walked away.
If you could live that day over, now what would you say?
I'll be your master; you will be my slave.
I'll even go with you, when you go to your grave.
Now that you have met me, what will you do?
Will you try me or not?
Its all up to you.
I can bring you more misery than words can tell.
Come take my hand, let me lead you to hell."

When all of a sudden one day- the switch flipped and my brain said "hmmm, I kinda like this feeling, let's take 2 next time to see how that feels..." And I've been working like hell for almost 10 years now to teach my brain that- what it felt and what it wants/craves/thinks it needs... Is a lie! A big fat lie...

Addictive personalities for starters. Getting addicted is the easy part. Coming off that shit is the hardest. Never had an opiate addiction. To many friends and family were into it. I was warned never to do it more than 3 days or you’ll get a chippy. I was addicted to smoking coke not crack . I didn’t have a physical need like heroin gives you. It’s all in the mind. Anyways been clean for 15 yrs this past September.
Very sad that her dream is to see 30. I had started using later in life then most. Aroind 40. Started like most. Doctors office visit after a fender bender Then I reached the heroin for 4 months and then for help. I am a methadone patient now and have been for about 2 years. I have had a couple relapses very early on. I never talk about it and I have never posted about it as far as I recall until now.
Sherri Viz You are strong. You will get through this. Life is beautiful if you live it on the right side. Im rooting for you.
Ma God bless you, I got addicted to opiates from a ACL knee surgery and one of my roommates told me to tell the doctor that the Percocets didn't work and to give me Dilaudid and I had no idea what any of it was so in the doctor gave me Dilaudid my roommate had a bag of syringes waiting when I got home and it was Game On from there, I've never talked about it either but I am a methadone patient now for about a year-and-a-half so far I have not relapsed but I'm wondering how I'm going to get off of the methadone I hate it I work outside and the methadone with the heat makes me really sick now and I've worked outside my whole life and never any problem so I started taking a liquid methadone from the clinic
@@mikewiley1652 I was on it to get off of pain medication. It takes time. Sometimes as long as you've been an addict. You need to wean yourself down at the clinic. Your councilor should be discussing this with you. Hopefully you are attending group meetings or one on one sessions on how you will remain clean and NEVER go backwards. I started at 100mgs and literally tapered down to 1mg and the next thing you know, you're done. it took a couple years but was worth the fight. The thing that really helped me was seeing kids as young as 18 (younger than my own kids) looking for help. I couldn't imagine my kids having to suffer what they or I had to go thru. Do everything in your power not to relaps or you will start the cycle all over again. And whatever you do, DO NOT jump off of Methadone for ANY reason! Even tho you may think you're ok at a low dose. I did that at 10 mgs and still felt withdrawls from it. When you get down to the 10 mg mark, wean slowly if you need to. Stay at 1mg for a few weeks if you have to. Some may say you are trading one drug (FUK THEM) for another but it sure beats doing heroin or pills and going thru the pain of not having the drug. You can function and go to work verses selling yourself like some do and living in pure HELL suffering "not to get high but to feel normal" One day you will look back and truly be proud of the person you were always meant to be. It CAN be done. YOU hold that power. Always remember that. I wish you luck :)
Yes, SO Sad! Actually, I got a new chance @life @33. Right as I was about to do the drugs at the end of my block. And soon after the last time my husband had choked me.... God (only voice that I c/trust as His, bcuz I thought it had the most Peace of them all) told me to go to Teen Challenge; I thought I was too old! But it's what I needed (adult program) as I was suicidal, taking antidepressants/ anti-anxiety medication and although I was a stay home mother of 4 and married, he didn't want me no more and was kicking me out after choking me every other year. Now I was not near perfect and had a lot of issues, too which spurned it-though there's no excuse! He'd also cheated.
So instead of the drugs I followed & found Jesus, Love, Forgiveness, HOPE, Community, and the Daddy I was always missing. This community consisted of addicts, prostitutes, mothers, gang members, grandmothers, dealers, church people, sex slaves... and we all found New Life & Freedom together!! We're still connected even though I returned to my own state. And I know I am loved and have Purpose now! I've got a Daddy💖! +I reconciled with my children, parents and best friend. May this bring hope to anyone reading it. God restored my life at Freedom House Teen Challenge it is a safe place to get free and clear. And I I'm so glad I gave God what HE asked for and HE gave me more even though it looks different than what I would have thought. Better than death!

Baby face I live in Warsaw Poland mow after NY Hardly any of this here thankfully
I use to work as a BHT in Delray and Boynton and I stopped when I caught on to what was happening. One of my clients told me that my boss told them to relapse so that they wouldn’t get kicked out. She was from up north with no family down here. They lured her here and used her. I’ve seen people lives ruined because of this young kids as young as 16. I’ve seen death and cruel treatments.

I went to rehab in Delray Beach this year and my insurance was billed almost $300,000. Luckily I wasn’t trafficked but there was DEFINITELY a lot of little stuff that make me question them after seeing this. I’d heard rumors but this is the most concrete thing I’ve seen...
honey... you were still trafficked... just not secksually. hope you're doing good you are so pretty
This almost happened to me when i was sent to a facility in florida in the end of 2015. This shit is real and terrifying. You feel absolutely hopeless and lost and like nobody will ever help pull you out since nobody knows your even there in the first place. And many of the girls in the place i was at went thru this being trafficked and sent thru every facility in that state. At one of the facilities i was at they would stash drugs on the campus for us to relapse on so they would continue to get atleast another 6 more months of insurance out of us. This is real and disgusting and im glad someone is finally talking about it cause nobody believed me once i was FINALLY able to get back home to colorado...

Legalize prostitution. Dont execute people for being pimps or johns. As long as all parties give their uncoerced informed consent they should b allowed to fuk for money. But rapists should go to labor prison for life. And people should not steal from others when they dont need to. And kidnapping people should be illegal.

Why does it seem like this kind of crap often originates in Florida? Weren't they also the epicenter of "pill mills" a few years back? Does anyone know or are my thoughts/beliefs correct??
Angela McWane yes, you are absolutely correct.
Florida is the epicenter of scumbaggery in the US. I don't know why exactly, but so many of the crazy and fucked up news stories you hear about either happened in Florida or there is a Florida connection. Ohio and Texas have their fair share, but Florida is far and away number one when it comes to things like this.
Angela McWane Florida is the 1# state of bad Behavior..
You are. The problem is Florida has a physician board that runs the State. Now this means that the Dr.s can make more money by letting new regulations on new drugs. It's a sad fact. Now just like this strong beautiful woman said the trafficking is a huge problem beacuse the state is a tourist trap. Florida needs to step up big time and regulate this. I live in Massachusetts and I am seeing it more and more here. It's bad. We as a species need to come together and stop this problem. I lost my father to a opiate overdose and my wife lost her sister the same way. And between the two of us we have lost over a dozen good friends. If one person reads this let's try to help someone. It may save there life
Angela McWane Fla another major state of bad behavior..
As an addictions counselor, I can tell you that it's these types of horror stories that reminds our field of why we do what we do:
1. Endeavor to help resolve the client's needs...
2) And not just use them as a means to an end... a paycheck (for you). They know the difference; even if some of us, don't.
Only thing i dont understand is, well, for example, a friend of mine intentionally crashed his car for the insurance $. The insurance co. investigation was top notch, they busted him. How do they continue to get away with defrauding very powerful companies or institutions without getting busted and the story going mainstream? These companies have some very good lawyers working for them.
Is it that they are all involved? Dissenters bribed, threatened, silenced, suicided etc.....hmmm
That and government comps their losses. The Corp execs are always tight with big government
They know the charges are BS, they don't care because the insurance company is also profiting.
The corruption runs DEEP.
For this level it MUST be all the way up to the top!
I went to an agency to get help with my rent. They kept trying to push me into parenting class and drug treatment class. I just needed help with my rent. Every week they drug tested me. Once, I looked at the name on the cup, it was someone else's name. I was angry. If I got someone else's urine cup, was someone else getting mine? I knew that I was clean; I didn't know about the other person.
Wow. Did your test ever come back with drugs because of this?
Omg! I believe it.
You're not the only one to discover what and more has been revealed about them! You're darn right, and theyre not realizing they are blatantly wrong and ignorantly irresponsible, not at all right candidates to be handing out or handling ir custodians of any parents especially. I think one has to be mentally competent to a greater degree to be authorized for that stuff.
But its widely not really vetted out and they dont really care.I dont care what anyone says to disagree, its just all scam and socialist ideology if not plain dangerously stupid. They act like putting our families at risk is not serious. It is and we know it. I cant wait until they are all kicked out and banned from the whole length of their dangerous and harming polital agendas which need to be faced down thru proper jurisdiction with real law, justice and responsible safety in care professions and institutions we can trust,clarified and beneficial to OUR common people's needs, legit and quality services, not stupid agendas for barely concealed and poorly trained or qualified fraudsters in huge mob of power seekers.
@Kathleen 168 You should report them to that state's attorney general office to be investigated for that corruption!!!!
I think you should report this. Unscrupulous so-called treatment providers are stealing from the government, meanwhile, other people who really need the government to pay for treatment have a difficult time accessing funds.
This is sickening. Sons of the Devil. Abusing others like this is a heinous crime
To me it sounds like the insurance companies are in on it too.

The insurance companies need to stop paying for all of these tests and when they do they need to regulate how many tests they can give a week and the cost is to be no more than a store bought test. They need to heavily regulate these sober living facilities and inspect them often.
Brandy B Agree.
ideal, but will never happen.
They never cared once they uncovered the fraud they continued to let other charges like massages, group outings etc as another bill.
Actually, insurance companies will not pay for every UA tests done. There is a cap on how many tests that will be paid. I do billing and insurance collections.
Didnt you catch the opening speech? Obamacare requires them to pay these costs. Its the law now. One reason your premiums are up 60 to 80%

This is why it’s important to take Insurance company’s out of the equation
It's actually the opposite; state and Federal governments want as many people as possible depending on them. Medicaid /Medicare and other healthcare subsidies, while much needed by individuals who are retired and /or unable to work, has expanded substantially to covering children, young adults, and the working class. Essentially a giant pool of people that governments have detailed information on and can be shared amongst the individual insurance carriers (Fidelis, United Healthcare etc.) offered through Medicaid/Medicare. When you have public subsidies, the standard for quality is extremely low. We need to stop incentivizing being low income and get people back to earning an income. There are young women who come from generations of government dependency and they see that they can have free food, free cell phone, free healthcare, and a monthly income check. they end up having more than any of us footing the bill for these subsidies.
CeeCee that’s my point, the Ppl need to demand government not allow insurance co. To run Amrkkka’s healt care
@@mwiluokolo9559 there will always be a need for health insurance but if it's coming out of my pocket whether as a copay or premium, we don't need our government taking more money from our taxes to pay for free healthcare for other people. The extent of the government's involvement should be limited to regulation of billing practices. Those who are supporting this "Medicare for all" idea don't understand that the issue of affordability has always resolved itself by way of competition between insurance providers. Insurance companies make their money off premiums so the more policyholders they have, the more competitive the rates become. Obama screwed everyone over by penalizing anyone who doesn't have insurance coverage and by making it impossible for employers with a small staff to offer health insurance benefits. As a result, employees were forced to purchase insurance outside of their employers or be penalized. It comes down to handouts, people have become so accustomed to government handouts that the idea of being a productive member of society is like a foreign concept. Statistically, the number of able bodied people who refuse to work and instead live off the system far outweighs the number of people who actually need it. It was never intended to be a permanent solution at the taxpayers expense.
We should all have good healthcare provided. To have the healthcare industry as a for profit industry is demonic.
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 how should physicians, radiologists, surgeons, etc. be paid? Free med school? Who pays for that if medical care is offered as a free service? These are just a small portion of the problems with healthcare and why there has to be a competitive market. In the auto insurance industry, at least in NY, there is an assigned risk pool for drivers who aren't able to get an insurance policy because they're considered high risk. In order to ensure that every driver has coverage to meet the minimum requirements, insurance companies are required to insure a certain number of those who are in the assigned risk pool. A similar regulation could be done for individuals who don't qualify for standard health insurance. While Medicaid/Medicare is typically seen as the answer, it has turned the healthcare industry upside down and caused the inflation in healthcare costs. There are so many people dependent on it now as a result of Obamacare and the incentivizing of government subsidies that's it's impossible for healthcare providers to provide affordable care. Hence why the more reputable doctors and surgeons don't accept Medicaid; the reimbursement rate is extremely low.
It's just outstanding how evil and greedy a group of people can be
Just when I thought I heard it all...this is absolutely devastating💔😔

I could never figure out Why these places get away with charging these outrageous prices for a 30 day detox!?!! It's criminal! This shouldn't be a moneymaking business!
I’m going to be perfectly honest. You know the things Larry Nassar’s victims said about how USAG was complicit? That’s how the rehab industry is - and that’s what it is. At a time when this country needs adequate treatment more than ever, we have a non-science based, unquestioned treatment model that isolated addicts from people close to them when they relapse - which they inevitably will, and.... shit, I’m glad my coke addiction ended before this hustle started. I was a young kid who got sent from treatment center to treatment center bc I had good insurance...smh... this is the most disgusting predatory shit I’ve ever heard, but it’s happening bc of a disgusting, predatory treatment model that doesn’t fucking work.
I think as was highlighted in the video, the regulation of illegal practices in rehabs was lagging a great deal - sad to me that the Healthcare for all model was so easily used to do irreparable harm.
This is a horrible story, a horrible reality.

I went to a real government funded rehab facility and my ex went to one of these homes in west palm beach in 2015.

Im so glad I didn't have insurance and was treated by people who actually cared. I was one of the last groups of women to receive help from them before their doors closed due to not enough help from government. Meanwhile these people were lining their pockets and killing people!

I have voluntarily gone in to the hospital on several occasions over the past 20 years. This is what I have experienced and seen:
Antipsychotics prescribed to everyone for everything. They are used for depression, anxiety, sleep. . . It's always antipsychotics first everything. A few months ago I went to a 24 hour access center because an insurance change had left me off meds. The nurse there was encouraging me to take Saphrys. She was marveling about how wonderful it was for anxiety. She had No idea that she was pushing an antipsychotic until I informed her that Saphrys was one.
Everyone is given antipsychotics. This is go make everyone submissive and treatment compliant.
Your treatment plan is determined by insurance coverage. My insurance covers 9 days. So for a week they act concerned, day 8 they start telling me how well I've done, how ready to be discharged and day 9 I am out the door.
I have met people in hospitals who are court ordered or have the right insurance who are there for months. Taking antipsychotics and pacing the halls.
I was surprised that counseling or psychotherapy are no longer offered. They no longer even pretend to care how you feel.
The treat model is to pump people so full of antipsychotics that they don't notice or care that they are not receiving any professional help and that instead of therapy, a bunch of 18-20 year old minimum wage psych techs are condescending to them.
I hope I never have to go to the hospital again. If my anxiety or PTSD get so bad I can't stand it, I will go to a 24 hour access center, the a dose or 2 of antipsychotics to shut it down, and then leave as quickly as possible. I will never go inpatient again. Fuck that humiliation.
I was in an inpatient hospital for 5 months but I was a teenager. My mom had good insurance and that's probably why they kept me so long. Everybody else got out super quick whether they had progress or not. It didn't help at all though.
poetgirl thanks. I do know I have a purpose. I am a Christian Missionary and most of my ministry is based on overcoming trauma with Jesus.
poetgirl amen

I like how well informed the Mayor is about thousands of locations, and he is so nonchalant like it will never change. To him it's an accepted fact of life.
OMG !!!!
I am SOOOO sorry for those victims who were tricked this way.
Opportunists, scammers, criminal offendors are everywhere and are so cunning and manipulative !
Preyed on desperate people seeking help. Speechless !!!
I am 2 going on 3 years clean, was addicted to Heroin for 4 years. Thank God I'm alive EVERYDAY.🙏🏽🙌🏽💞
Congrats girlll
Amy Baby... So you were addicted and using in the womb?
I left Florida in 2013 because of this. it was scary. I went there for treatment and ended up almost loosing my life because of people that specifically look for out of town drug addicts fresh from rehab.
Its time to end the "War On Drugs"!
Ur stupid as fuck.. The war on drugs is a loss. Its caused more death and destruction than its ever did help. Trump is dumb as fuck too so he probably will push the war even harder.
The saddest thing is many of the women that you see on the Highways are there through force and guess who gets in trouble for it? Not the pimps, not the police who turn a blind eye, not the judicial system. The woman who can not get any help from anyone. Certainly not the man who pays for her body. I cant even watch this so my comment may be unrelated to the actual story. I just know there is little hope out there for anyone who was forced into this sort of life as once you catch a charge you will never work a legit job again. Even if you get someone to hire you without checking your record if the police know you got a legit job they will go and tell your employer to keep you on the streets, on drugs and in and out of jail. Florida is a terrible place to be a victim in
I wish ppl would stop calling these sex traffickers "pimps". The real pimps and hookers get arrested meanwhile the sex traffickers are still out kidnapping and abducting women and children... That's who the police turn a blind eye to because many times they are in on it!
It’s sickening how widespread this is. I worked in a bad area of Daytona and all the girls were shocked that I treated them like people. I knew one girl who told me she was a Schizophrenic and her “man” was taking all the money she’d make and force her to get high so her friends could take turns. She always stuck in my mind because you could tell she was more physically worn from the abuse than the drugs. It’s a real hell hole we live in
This situation would not exist if you had universal single payer health care like the rest of the civilised world. Americans deserve better than this awful health profiteering.
Seems like universal health Care created the problem. Government intrusion in healthcare isn't the answer.
TheHef12345 No it's unchecked health insurance companies and those who take advantage of this corrupt system!
Absolutely not. Watch the video called "the truth about universal healthcare". I personally know 2 people who have died because they went to the ER and waiting times/resources are so limited that they couldn't get treatment in time/ at all.
Waiting times in Canada are often 10 hours, and then you only see a nurse once you get in. To see a private doctor, it can be 800-1000 dollars just for the initial appointment, without any treatment, and it can take months waiting in line to get something as simple as a blood work up (or any kind follow up treatment). Haven't you heard of "death committees"? The board of people who decide if you will be able to get cancer treatment, for example? Universal health care means very limited resources. Doctors don't get paid enough, so there are very little doctors. So instead, most people wait hours for pretty much no care. You can't choose to get bloodwork for the hell of it in places like Canada, you can't even get cancer treatment by your own choice when you're gonna die.
The answer is to get government completely out of healthcare. I also lived in the Philippines and ANYONE can go to the hospital, no insurance needed, and get QUALITY care for very, very cheap. For example, an Xray there cost me 6$ without any insurance. In the States my doctor charges 300$ (insurance covered most of it, but for those without insurance, that is the price).
I was in the Philippines because my dad is a pilot. Now that were back in the US, most of our FedEx pilots STILL fly to Thailand if they need in detail checkups (with MRIs, full scans, in-body camera check ups, etc.), surgeries, or whatever. Why? Because the plane tickets plus the medical care over there is still cheaper than just the medical care bill in the States. And in universal healthcare countries like Canada or in Europe, you can't ELECT to have medical care/random check ups, and even if you really need it, you still likely won't get it. In the US, your insurance often decides for you what medical care you are able to receive.
Most people just think "free care? Of course!" But they don't take into account the facts. With free/universal health care, there often is not enough care to go around. And factually, many people never get any care whatsoever. Real people are dying because of universal healthcare. That's why we need to get government OUT of healthcare and do it like Thailand, for example. In the free market, customers would go to the doctors offices with the lowest price and the highest quality care. Doctors with high prices or shitty quality care will lose all their customers, and therefore more doctors will start to offer good prices and good care. Keep in mind that most doctors are slaves to insurance/pharmaceutical companies. With insurance companies out of the picture, prices would drop significantly. If they didnt drop, they would get no customers, ever. So, they would HAVE TO drop. Doctors and pharmaceutical companies wouldn't base their prices off of the fact that large portions of the population DO have insurance, and therefore they wouldn't be able to charge astronomical prices. Prices would go way down, quality would go way up, and the free market (aka customer satisfaction/customer choice) would drive the market, and therefore fix the prices. And obviously, the enormous taxes everyone pays toward universal healthcare would be put back in their pockets.
I understand most people have only lived in one country and may not have experience or may not have done lots of research on the topic, but people are dying left and right due to universal healthcare. Just because they say it's free doesn't mean it's good care, or that most people get ANY care at all. Again, I know real people who have died because they couldn't get any treatment. I also know incredibly poor people in the Philippines who can get QUALITY care anytime they need it, for a low price, including with no wait times (all with NO insurance companies involved). It is the best system because, yes, everyone does deserve to have access to health care. And that's why government needs to get out of healthcare. Universal countries have real people dying left and right, while free market healthcare countries like the ones I mentioned provide good, cheap healthcare to ANYONE that needs it.
I encourage you to watch the video I mentioned. Its a good short video. I really wish people would do some research before supporting something that is keeping people sick, and even killing them.

I know my comment is very long, but please read all of it if you have time.
@@lsnprice LSN92 but for sure for philipinos or the local the health care still expensive! You can say its cheaper since the currency and income rate is different. I got private insurance but my government also require kind of universal healthcare, which cost 2% of our income or max. $7/month. Its not the best but I think its works! I can easily meet the doctor only by making online appointment in the same day and get medicine and the treatment. Even I can get transfer to higher hospital for serious illness. And alot of people use it to get monthly check up for their kids and get free vitamins 😊 but... Well i understand your point by having an option. And that's why I also have private insurance, soo I can have more options and second or third opinions.
For anyone struggling with addiction.
..
You can have it, share it, save it, believe it.
Love and blessings going out to you all.
In a world that can seem full of gloom and doom, it's often hard to get past that spoon.
Some will say it's how I deal, but as we heal we know what's real.
Real is hurt and pain and strife and once we know this we get the knife.
This knife is for cutting the ties that bind and releasing old hurts that are yours and mine.
One day we will look and see a fork and this is used to dig up that dirt,we make a hole and place that hurt , put it all in there that just don't work.
Just bury that pain and walk away,there is no good in revisiting and living it over and over each day.
We find our strength with each renewed day and with it comes joy and hope,these are the feelings that stay.
These feelings we get when we know true love ,a love that that comes from up above,will keep us grounded and strong through the trials, as we walk our walk those lonely miles.
Just know that within you there is much strength,that if you laid it down mile for mile it covers that trench.
Ya never have to jump it ever again,you been made new by Christ Amen and Amen
Omg! I was lured to Florida for suboxone treatment! I didn't go because I found it in my state,plus the man I spoke to was shady as hell and I my gut said NOPE. SOOOOO GLAD I NEVER WENT TO HOLLYWOOD FLORIDA REHAB. Thank u JESUS.
Subs are the hardest to get off next to methadone
Hollywood. I live in Florida and don't go to Hollywood. Thank god.
Doug Noble methadone....6 years I’ve been on it I’ve never relapsed but at my most I was on 200mg and I’m now down to 30. I hope to b off by this year. I really wish I had done my research before getting on it. I was only taking a few Percocet a day so I should have just dealt with the withdrawal. They don’t tell you how hard it is to get off.
Nakita Raulerson what are you going thru on 30mg? I’m on 30
Babii Brit I’m not going thru anything right now I just know when I’m down to 0 it’s going to be hard from everything I’ve heard it’s nothing nice. But I gotta do it. My life is great but who wants to go to a clinic the rest of their life.I hope they come out with a non habit forming drug for opiate addiction soon I think it would help so many people.
The fact that i live so close to these places makes me scared for my life. And I’m not even an addict. I can’t imagine the fear these vulnerable people feel when they realize what they got into.
Young ladies.... My young ladies in the world..... I do wish all of their pains away... 😔This is the worst I'm sure
Kristina Jakakas 🙏
👏🏼💪🏼
That does a lot
I love you for your comment. You have a wonderful soul. Te amo por siempre!
It was. Kenny chatman was an asshole to all of us girls. We went here seeking helo just so they could do us so dirty. Smh. Thank u for showing ur love.
Simone and other girls and women like her are the reason why I want to be a social worker. My heart broke when she started crying toward the end.
Vanessa B. Well good luck honey. You have to realize that to be in social work today unfortunately does not mean that you're going to be doing the right thing by people. It's not going to be about where your heart lies. You're going to have to do what the system tells you just like they will and if you don't play ball you'll be fired and you'll never work in social work again. They will blackball you just like the scientists who have told us that climate change is a lie just like most of the things that science tells us they get blackballed and will never work in their industry again. I don't know about you but after you spent four years or more earning your education and degree and spending upwards of $100,000 on your education are you going to throw it all away? Most people don't. Most people jump on the bandwagon and do what they're told like good little soldiers. That is what keeps this world turning. And it's a damn shame.
I wouldn't trust you neither
@@chrisfisher5351 that's right sir
This is what a private health care system results in!! Serves the private insurance companies right!! A,m I supposed to feel sorry for the poor insurance companies?? When you don't make it a human right to have good health coverage, when you have a FOR-PROFIT system, that's exactly what's going to happen -- FOR PROFIT for anyone who can figure out a way to do it.
LOL you called it a 'private healthcare system'. we do not have a 'private healthcare system' ---at all. If you watch the video you will see this problem happened because the 'affordable health care act' that mandates 'private' insurance companies to pay for 'rehab', of drug addiction which... is not a disease, that has any proven treatment---made a free for all, for anybody to say, we 'treat' addicts, and charge your private company as long as you stay sick. This is the worst marriage of 'private' enhanced 'social' healthcare imaginable. And don't think they didn't know what would happen when they signed this turd of a law. It worked for everybody but the working tax payer. If you disagree, wake the up.
The US doesn't have a private healthcare. It was only ACA that let it be more profitable. Nevertheless, Human trafficking is going to happen regardless of Healthcare.
Okay, comrade.
southern mediator In Canada our healthcare is covered without the need of insurance companies. You go to the hospital, the government foots the bill.
It’s a single payer system, and therefore it’s hard to exploit.
Hospitals are publicly funded, therefore they don’t charge $20 for a single halls drop.
Without private hospitals or private insurance, there’s no money to be made off people’s health issues.
