Vice President Vance and Administrator Oz Announce Actions to Address Fraud, Waste, and Abuse

Published | Video Starts at 07:58

The Vice President started highlighting autism. Let's get into the details of what's really going on in Minnesota. These are real cases from our group at cms. These are adjudicated numbers. There is a fraud scheme in Minnesota where criminals, soon to be criminals, pay moms $1,000 roughly in order to enroll their children as being autistic. Falsely dishonestly claiming their children are autistic, they then bill Medicaid. This already happened. Millions of dollars for services that were never rendered, they never delivered by a qualified staff member. (07:58–08:10)
