Ethema Health Corp (GRST)

[Bubae]

Interesting article. These are the people suing Behavioral Health Holding Inc (BHHI). BHHI changed its name to American Treatment Holdings Inc (ATHI) in 2019. ATHI is the holding company for the treatment center of which Ethema claims 75% of. Shawn Leon was fairly desperate in early 2020 after closing their only treatment center and found this guy Hawkins. What is it with the treatment center business that it attracts such unscrupulous players like Hawkins?

BEHAVIORAL HEALTH HOLDINGS, INC (BHHI) Name Change to AMERICAN TREATMENT HOLDINGS INC (ATHI) August 8th 2019.

Closer look at Florida’s sober homes: Inside their fatal attraction with Wisconsin’s addicts

https://www.channel3000.com/news/local-news/closer-look-at-florida-s-sober-homes-inside-their-fatal-attraction-with-wisconsin-s-addicts/article_50d8ade9-5953-562b-91ac-77cf5cdd7714.html

...Seth Stricklin, of Janesville, overdosed just days ago at Evernia Station sober living home in West Palm Beach. His parents, Mark and Joyce, said they’ve been kept in the dark about the moments surrounding his death....



For former addicts who have made it through recovery, the scam known as the Florida shuffle is nothing new.

“There are a number of clients I have worked with that have shared with me their experiences about patient brokering when they were sent to treatment out of state,” said Skye Boughman, who works in drug poisoning prevention.

Boughman said prior to the passing of the Affordable Care Act, insurance companies would regularly cap coverage levels for those struggling with addiction.

“It put families in horrible positions where many of them took out second mortgages on their homes in order to have a chance to save their child’s lives,” she said.

After the ACA passed, however, she said sober homes began to appear in states like Florida, California and Arizona. Boughman said these homes exist not to heal people of their addictions, but to make money.

“Some of the places that popped up were very unscrupulous and really took advantage of people and that’s when we start to see patient brokering,” she said.
