LOS ANGELES (CN) — Federal officials on Thursday announced several Southern California arrests linked to millions of dollars in health care fraud, placing much blame on the state’s failure to perform oversight.
Officials said those arrested, who include nurses, a chiropractor and a psychologist, face accusations including that they planned to defraud Medicare of over $50 million through sham hospice facilities. In one case, people received money in exchange for their information being placed on Medicare reimbursement forms. Fraudulent claims over years netted some $8.5 million.
