Florida Healthcare Law Firm's Jeff Cohen Releases Quick Guide to New Substance Abuse Law

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - May 2, 2017 - PRLog -- The quick guide is a 15 minute presentation by Cohen with corresponding downloadable slides.  "One of the biggest challenges faced by addiction treatment providers today, especially in Palm Beach County, Florida, arises in the context of unprecedented pressure by law enforcement, newspapers and insurers.  The threat of being targeted by law enforcement is an enormous thing in itself.  Add to that the mainstream media's insatiable desire for readers, the industry's drop into insurer red flagging and recoupment, the political football nature of addiction and addiction treatment, and treatment providers can lapse into a state of paralyzed tunnel vision, a sort of mass hypnosis of inaction," says Cohen.

He goes on to say that "The problem providers have dealing with the current crisis environment is that they have a lot to lose if they take their eye off the bigger picture.  The more absorbed they become in "crisis mode," the more likely they will miss important details in an increasingly regulated and changing industry.  Losing the ability to see the entire picture (and trends) and quickly adapting to it can have costly (and even deadly) consequences." The quick guide is a free download which allows providers to get informed at their convenience without taking valuable time away from their business. It is available by visiting the Firm's website at www.FloridaHealthcareLawFirm.com.
