The Truth Behind Detox Insurance Fraud: David Johnson's Side of the Story

People are dying all over, unless you're a mother of a child out there and suffering. Take these companies out there screwing people over, because they're not doing no better than the clients themselves.
What really happens when the owner of a detox center is charged with insurance fraud? In this gripping episode of 'High While Clean', host Eric McCoy digs into the controversial case of David Johnson, the former owner of Southern California Detox. Johnson was charged with 30 counts of insurance fraud in 2018 and pled guilty, but his version of events paints a different picture. Prosecutors accused him of double-billing over 90 Health Net policies and pocketing more than $250,000.
The FBI even found evidence suggesting that Johnson used his personal credit card to pay initial premiums for a significant number of policyholders. But Johnson claims his actions were misunderstood and insists he was merely trying to help his clients. Eric McCoy takes listeners through the twists and turns of this case, offering his own experiences with clients and insurance companies.
He sheds light on the murky practices within the addiction treatment industry, discussing the role of referral companies and the urgent need for transparency. This episode is a raw and honest look at the complexities of addiction treatment, the challenges faced by those in recovery, and the systemic issues that need addressing. Whether you're directly affected by addiction or simply curious about the behind-the-scenes workings of the treatment industry, this episode promises to be both eye-opening and thought-provoking.
