Body Brokers and the Affordable Care Act Loophole

The film "Body Brokers," starring Michael K. Williams, exposes a "gold rush" in the rehab industry created by the Affordable Care Act. The legislation required insurance to cover substance abuse, leading to a $12 billion industry where facilities bill thousands for "liquid gold" (urine tests). The segment also covers FBI investigations into "biological resource centers" that illegally sold infected body parts for profit.
