DOJ Announces Massive Bust in Healthcare Fraud Case – RedState

DOJ Announces Massive Bust in Healthcare Fraud Case – RedState

This is an unmountained victory for taxpayers: on Monday, the Ministry of Justice announced the accusations against 324 defendants in a huge health fraud bust, involving $ 14.6 billion in false complaints. Yes, it’s a “billion”, as in a “b” followed by “illion”.





The announcement, of Matthew R. Galeotti du Doj, declares:

Today we are announcing accusations against 324 defendants for their presumed participation in health fraud regimes involving about $ 14. 6 billion false complaints subject to Medicare, Medicaid and other health care programs. In such a large disassembly, I cannot describe all the work that has been devoted to each program.

You can see all the details of a DOJ press release here. Some strengths:

Showing the significant return on investment resulting from the efforts to apply fraud to health care, the government has grasped more than $ 245 million in cash, in luxury vehicles, cryptocurrency and other assets in the context of coordinated efforts. As part of the government’s total approach to fight against health care fraud announced today, centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) also announced that it has successfully prevented more than $ 4 billion from being paid in response to false and fraudulent allegations and that it has suspended or revoked the invoicing privileges of 205 suppliers in the months before Civil accusations against 20 accused for $ 14.2 million in alleged fraud, as well as civil colonies with 106 defendants totaling $ 34.3 million, were also announced in the context of withdrawal.





Medicare and Medicaid fraud are big problems; During my previous career, for a while, I had a piece of a small manufacturing attire which also organized a rental operation for sustainable medical devices (beds, etc.), and we regularly heard news of people who were broken for small -scale fraud.

It was not on a small scale. And all the Perps were not there in the United States.

Finally, an accused based in Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates who had an invoicing company would have orchestrated a program to tackle vulnerable people who need drug addiction by complicating with the owners of treatment centers in Bill Arizona Medicaid about $ 650 million for drug addiction services. According to court documents, some of the services invoiced have never been provided, while other services have been provided at a level so lower than that it has served any target of treatment.

It is certainly a feather in the ceiling of all the people involved.

Over the years, since the creation of Medicare and Medicaid, fraud has been endemic. Some of the Perps are captured, and today we see a fairly huge bust. But many others are never, and in the process, taxpayers are soaked for billions. Estimates of the amount of fraud in the Medicare system alone go from $ 50 billion to $ 100 billion per year. This 14.6 billion dollars bust is important, but there are many more twisted activities to be rooted in this system.

For today, however, we will win the victory.
