Abstract
Florida, which is on the verge of leading the nation in unvaccinated children and adults – and therefore probably in preventable disease – has done one thing right, thanks to former prosecutor Dave Aronberg. It got rid of patient brokering (now a felony) and other get rich quick schemes of the addiction treatment industry. However, Aronberg is now concerned about some new threats (leaving the vaccine issue out of it) – losing the insurance protections of the Affordable Care Act, which helps make treatment affordable for many. Florida is no longer a out-of-network only state (where treatment programs fought to get patients with this pricy and lucrative insurance). The Affordable Care Act may not be perfect, but, as Aronberg said recently, “Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.” (For more, go to https://floridapolitics.com/archives/755418-author-dave-aronberg-says-federal-law-tweaks-not-money-are-whats-needed-for-addiction-treatment/).
