Florida Shuffle

[edit]
  • ... that the Florida shuffle is when a broker or rehab center attempts to lure a drug user so a rehab center may bill the user's insurance company as much as $40,000? Sources: "It’s called the “Florida shuffle,” a cycle wherein recovering users are wooed aggressively by rehabs and freelance “patient brokers” in an effort to fill beds and collect insurance money."[1] "various treatment clinics can reap $40,000 or more in insurance claims when someone goes through treatment for drug addiction"[2]

  • Please link this to at least one other Wikipedia page so it won't get an orphan tag. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 00:12, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

  • Thank you. Restoring tick per Michael Barera's review. Yoninah (talk) 01:13, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
  • I just promoted this but now I'm returning to to WP:DYKNA, because the hook and the lead really don't match. The lead says the Florida shuffle describes the shuffling around of a patient from rehab center to rehab center, and the article goes on to describe how brokers or centers try to attract patients. But the hook states that the Florida shuffle is the actual "luring" of patients. Could you clarify which is correct, the article or the hook? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 20:56, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
Yoninah I wrote both the Article and the hook so can I just choose what's more convenient :)? In all seriousness, you're right that the article phrases it more precisely than this hook. How about that drug users doing the Florida shuffle move between multiple rehab centers so a that each center may bill the user's insurance company as much as $40,000?
