Excited to give you a heads up about an upcoming podcast on Physician Interrupted.
Confronting Questionable Drug Testing in PHPs.
Very pleased to have as my guest expert Dr. Michael Langan who’s extensively studied the use of highly suspect alcohol biomarkers in PHPs. What he reveals is that not only are there very serious questions about the appropriateness of these tests for PHP intake screening purposes, their false positive rate may be wrongfully sending physicians to costly in-network evaluation and treatment centers. Worse, it appears the PHPs and the medical boards know these tests are both known to produce false positives and their use has in fact repeatedly been strongly advised against by at least one federal health agency. Dr. Langan suggests that what we’re really looking at is a massive scheme of intentionally fraudulent diagnosis. This will be one you don’t want to miss.
