This episode is going to discuss what a bodybroker is, kickbacks, how the affordable care act contributed to many rehab facilities becoming the new "pill mill" following the oxycontin epidemic.  I am sure there are some amazing rehabs but sadly it's impossible to determine which ones those are.

If you have been impacted by the "Florida Shuffle" or had an experience with a "body broker" I would love to hear your story!!!
