It used to be that a "high-end treatment & recovery" program was only for the rich.
Families and employers would let their addicts/alcoholics attend. It was the first house on the block, if you could afford it.
But most do not get clean/sober the first time. they need to go further down the path, and experience some bad things, whatever their station in life.
So making taxpayers pay for high-end recovery is a waste of money, but it is a way for big- government advocates to feel good about themselves, and the industries they assist.
My 23+ years of sobriety have taught me that making high-end recovery available doesn't help anybody but the company.
the company is being paid many, many $thousands per month per patient. They won't kick a paying customer out, for relapse.
Obamacare spawned a high-profit industry, They have bought all new vans, to drive their "patients" around town to various existing AA meetings. We call the vehicles "druggy-buggies."
The old saying "nobody wants you when your are down and out," is now "everybody wants you," since you represent tremendous profit.
Oh, the company is paid regardless of outcomes. Most will relapse within days/weeks/months but the fedgov controlled insurance has already been paid for.
And you can come back over and over. BTW most are owned/operated by entities newly created, with no long term experience or track record. IOW they only started once it became hugely profitable.
Forge about old tried and tested non-profits that actually help the down and out, like Salvation Army.
