The Trump Administration and Dr. Mehmut Oz, the Administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, have turned their attention to Los Angeles County and the massive amount of alleged medical fraud that is being reported from California.
According to FOX News, one LA doctor billed the government $120 million, claiming to oversee 1900 patients… in one year!
18% of THE ENTIRE COUNTRY’S home health care billing is coming out of Los Angeles County! Almost 20%!
And, Los Angeles has almost 2,000 registered hospice agencies! That is more than 36 states combined and thirty-times more than the whole state of Florida and New York.
Dr. Oz explained how easy it would be to open a hospice in LA, you don’t even have to live there!
Dr. Oz: “How is that possible? And take a look at this map, a cluster of 287 hospice providers, in a two-mile radius, some in strip malls, unmarked buildings, even a wrecking yard and vacant lot. All of it is just paperwork. I could fill that out in Kazakhstan if I want and get a hospice license waiting for me.”
