A former Addiction Recovery Care (ARC) employee is speaking out about alleged financial problems affecting workers at the Kentucky drug rehabilitation provider. Kim Hollingsworth told WKYT that repeated paycheck delays led her to resign in October. She claims some employees experienced bounced checks, while others waited as long as 30 days for payment. Hollingsworth also alleged employees encountered canceled health insurance coverage and were notified that 401(k) payroll deductions had been suspended. The complaints follow ARC’s $16.2 million federal civil settlement in July involving allegations of improper Medicaid billing. Hollingsworth said she contacted Kentucky’s Education and Labor Cabinet about the payroll issues. WKYT reported that neither ARC nor the cabinet had responded to its requests for comment.
