The Rehab Racket: Investigating the high cost of addiction care
America is facing a harrowing opioid epidemic, one that kills thousands of people each year. But the rehab system that could help combat the crisis is failing. It is far too expensive for typical families and often provides addiction treatments that aren’t proven or actually have evidence against their use. “The problem in the industry isn’t that we have a few bad actors,” Tami Mark, a health economist at the research foundation RTI International, told me. “It’s that a large portion of the addiction industry isn’t providing the type of care that we know leads to recovery.”

Non 12 Step Rehabs
Presently, 12 Step drug and alcohol rehabs comprise nearly 95% of all treatment programs in the US, yet they have only 5-10% success rates. Why is this and how has this become acceptable? The most significant advantage of attending this better type of opiate rehabilitation program is that success rates far exceed the 3-10% that is common in traditional rehabs. For example, many of the 90 day or longer drug rehab centers routinely publish 70-90% success rates. What's more is that this success is without the use of drug replacement therapy (suboxone or methadone). Patients leave an opioid rehab program of this type and remain drug free without relapse. When provided longer better care with therapy that is non-disease based, patients realize that the age old "once an addict always an addict" is simply not true.
