Medicaid Fraud Exposed: Home Health Aides Billing From Jail & States’ Lack of Oversight In this episode of Your LEO Nation, I break down what I see as a growing healthcare fraud epidemic and why I believe President Trump, Vice President Vance, and Acting Attorney General Blanche are right to unleash the DOJ on it. I cover new Pennsylvania charges alleging home health aides and purported Medicaid patients submitted over $400,000 in false claims for care that was never provided, including situations where the “aides” were hospitalized, working other jobs, or even sitting in jail. I also share Dr. Oz’s view that COVID-era spending opened the door to massive fraud and highlight Senate hearing testimony with Senator John Kennedy, including an estimate of $33 billion in Medicaid fraud and my reaction to a Georgetown professor saying he doesn’t believe states are cheating. 00:00 Fraud Epidemic Overview 00:40 Pennsylvania Medicaid Bust 01:16 DOJ Details the Scheme 02:39 Oversight Failures Exposed 03:09 Dr Oz on COVID Fraud Surge 04:38 Senate Hearing on Medicaid Fraud 07:33 33 Billion Dollar Estimate 09:38 Witness Denies State Cheating 11:08 Host Rebuts and Wraps Up
