Might be easier to look for places in Medicare where there is NOT fraud. Seems like the list would be a lot shorter.

Like three individual specialties in the same healthcare complex, looking for a diagnosis, each ordering an MRI from the same provider in less than a month?
It’s not really fraud, just redundant.
Just pull the first one out of the file.

You keep saying this without elucidating any broken laws.

This is kinda fun (and infuriating) to watch when I'm innocent. Mad cuz it spotlights how much money is stolen.

If laws are broken then sue.

This is basic civics. The three branches of government check each other in a circle. Right now the executive is making strong moves. If you feel you have a case check it with the judicial branch. It's the way it works.

HHS believes these programs are being hit with over $100 billion in fraud per year (nearly 12% of funds), so obviously, the IGs aren't a deterrent and are not making a big enough impact. Why not get some help? I believe the number of fraud and abuse cases is closer to 25% of total funds.

I am not saying IGs are worthless. IGs have reported on 10-figure Medicare/Medicaid frauds. However, most are uncovered due to whistleblowers or related to other criminal activity. They aren't doing the data testing Elon's autists are deploying.

They were/are on the take too. Trump just dismissed at least 17 inspectors general (IGs) from various federal agencies, including Defense, State, Transportation, and Health and Human Services.

Elon is the new IG, the original IG.

Your first mistake is trusting someone just because they are on your political sports team. Finding fraud and waste is fine but breaking the law in the process is not in anyone’s interest.


Um, wrong. Defrauding the American taxpayer of billions (trillions?) of dollars is absolutely in the interests of those who have been doing so for generations. The abominable bureaucracy has taken taxpayer dollars and used it to buy position, power, influence, and God only knows what else. Soon to be God and Elon Musk only knows. That's why marxist democrats such as yourself have been screaming bloody murder for several days now. The fraud is being exposed, and stopped.

Did Politico finally make payroll?
