Unmasking the Predatory Practices in Substance Abuse Treatment with John Swab

The fact that nobody believed me when I would tell them that this was going on was really the motivation to tell the story.
Ever wondered how the substance abuse treatment industry can sometimes feel like a money-making machine? In this eye-opening episode of 'Rehab Confidential', hosts Joe Schrank and Amy Dresner sit down with John Swab, the writer and director of the film 'Body Brokers'. Together, they dive into the murky waters of the multi-billion dollar insurance scandal that plagues the rehab world.
Swab shares his insights on how the industry often preys on vulnerable individuals through misleading advertisements and subpar care, all in the name of profit. The trio also discusses the shockingly low success rates of many treatment programs and the urgent need for better legislation and oversight. If you or someone you know has been affected by addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
It pulls back the curtain on the harsh realities many face when seeking help and underscores the critical need for systemic change.
