ASK GOVERNER SNYDER TO STOP HPRP AND LARA’S MISTREATMENT OF MICHIGAN HEALTH PROFESSIONALS

The Issue

  • The Michigan Professionals Recovery Program (HPRP) was originally intended as a safe haven for licensed health professionals seeking treatment before their addiction harms their families and their career. Once a well-intended organization HPRP has been forcing licensed health professionals into unnecessary and costly (financially and emotionally) substance abuse programs against the recommendation of treating physicians.  HPRP has disregarded the recommendations of their own providers as well as the decisions of administrative law judges forcing nurses to either agree to unnecessary multi-year substance abuse treatment contract or face automatic suspension of their professional license. Rather than succumb to the unreasonable and unconstitutional practices of HPRP we are fighting back through the court system. A complaint was recently filed in the Eastern District of Michigan seeking an injunction and damages for the constitutional violations committed by HPRP and LARA. Please click here to learn about the complaint http://www.chapmanlawgroup.com/hprp-class-action. Click here https://mllangan1.files.wordpress.com/2015/03/michigan-amended-complaint-2-15-cv-10337.pdf for a copy of the complaint. However, resolution through the courts is likely to take a significant amount of time. We are seeking your support in petitioning Governor Snyder to stop the abuses now. Our hope is that, in the end, no other healthcare professional will have to endure the loss of license, loss of income, humiliation and turmoil we have had to battle.  I am asking for your help in fighting this injustice along with us. 


Act now, sign the petition and inform your colleagues and friends! Michigan health professionals need your support now!
