This movie only scratches the surface on what happens in rehab programs. It was surprising that a person clean just 30 days was allowed to work in such high risk situations, but if he relapsed it would still feed the money beast so They win either way.
Unfortunately I know first hand how They fraud the families of addicts. A close family member went to rehab and it seemed like we were in a timeshare seminar and Their best sales person was the speaker. There was something about these people that was just..grimey. I didn't believe for a moment They believed all the B.S. They were selling but you ignore it as you want the family member off drugs.
Anyway, They found out there was private insurance and wouldn't admit until $5,000 deductible was paid up front. They wouldn't take half or installments. So of course you pay & when you see what They bill the insurance it's even worse.
I was surprised it wasn't included how drug dealers sell at AA meetings and the addict relapses back into rehab, or what happens to people when/how they're thrown out after insurance cap is met. Good film but it might make you P.O. sad, or both.
