Major Crackdown Exposes Billions in Alleged LA Hospice Fraud
Liberty Check
- Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Congress Los Angeles hospice fraud could total $5 billion.
- Authorities have already shut down hundreds of fraudulent hospices tied to shell operations and fake addresses.
- Officials say the anti-fraud effort is targeting suspicious entities to stop public funds from being drained.
HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently informed Congress that local hospice fraud in Los Angeles could reach a staggering $5 billion.
This massive theft of taxpayer resources spotlights the urgent need for strict government oversight and the protection of constitutional fiscal responsibility.
Representative Beth Van Duyne challenged the lack of previous action, noting that over 100 hospice licenses were once registered to a single California address.
“Typically, the stay in a hospice is about 18 days, these people stayed forever,” Kennedy explained regarding the fraudulent enrollments.
“Nothing ever happened because they weren’t actually there, they were just invented,” he continued while detailing how foreign groups exploited the system.
Reports of similar welfare and Medicaid fraud involving migrant communities have surfaced in Minnesota, Maine, and Ohio, totaling billions in losses.
Everyday Americans are left to pay the bill for these criminal enterprises that thrive when bureaucracy fails to secure our borders and our budget.
Safeguarding our national treasury from foreign exploitation and internal corruption is a foundational duty of the executive branch.
Our leaders must remain diligent in dismantling these networks to ensure federal programs serve those truly in need rather than criminals.
