While there are more physical health visits, it isn't even close to this degree of disparity. This means the vast majority of cases lose in professional review.
One of the reasons for this is the population served; many or most of those in treatment have some kind of emotional or cognitive disorder, and people can make decisions based on faulty reasoning. A person with BPD and a disagreement with a treatment team isn't precluded from filing a lawsuit. They just don't typically get very far, when you look at the stats.

People won the lawsuits, there is a whole thing about it on the Wikipedia page, and the place was forced to change its methods supposedly, but now there are more reports and more lawsuits. BTW the Google reports day things like:

There is physical abuse by staff, fights among the kids daily. You either learn how to fight in there, or you become a victim. Staff will slam you anytime they want and they know they can do it with no consequences. So they do it aggressively.
Sexual abuse and molestation by staff was occurring there, I know this for a fact. Staff would disappear with kids in private and there was a lot of bizarre stuff happening on that level.
The brainwashing techniques they use are barbaric. It creates insanity and sociopathic behavior. It breaks you down until you are a confused a lost soul. Combined with the other underlying issues, many people never recover from it.

I was a student at this 'school' my senior year of high school in 2000. Any posting stating that this is a place a student should be subjected too is a flagrant LIE. I was there and witnessed and subjected to Abuse in this school and the authors of comments condoning this school are deceiving parents and belittling the harsh treatments had by students -like myself- there. To condone this campus as anything other than what is it, a money making human rights violating machine perpetrating fraud and child abuse across state lines.

DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE! Practically a POW camp. An unknown fact is that X university is the biggest recruiting center for FBI and CIA. 90% of their recruiting taking place at x university. They use a lot of their torture tactics at these treatment centers.
