$165 Million in ONE year in ONE state & you know it’s just the tip of the iceberg...
Looking forward to any ACA Fraud.
That’s huge. The fraudsters need to go to jail.
Hope they’re checking Medicare as well.
Hummmm the story States in particular the problem resides in South Florida. So without stating the obvious about demographics this means that if California wasn’t ran by Marxists they could be saving the taxpayers 300 million a year just from fraud convictions in LA County alone.
The whole medical system system’s a scam... this stuff is just scam on scam.
Miami is filled with second and third world people’s used to living in a banana republic...or worse.
As they say, when in Rome do as the Romans do...
This fraud is just the tip of the iceberg...
The math speaks for itself.
$165 million in fraud — I will be the cost of weeding that out is 1/10th or less.
I have always thought that would be a great company to open — investigators into public benefits fraud. Just ask for 1/5th of the saved costs.
You would be wealthy beyond the dreams of avarice.
More fraud in S Florida than the rest of the country combined
True about Miami but the real scum live in Broward County.
Rick Scott knows all about Medicare fraud.
