Back to EpisodesHome Health Fraud: Groups Urge CMS to Pause Calif. Enrollments
Description
Three home health and hospice care organizations urge CMS head Dr. Mehmet Oz to pause new enrollments from California providers due to widespread fraud draining Medicare funds and harming patients. Hospice numbers spiked in LA, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Ventura counties, with one address billing over $38 million in 2023. Fraudsters are shifting tactics, applying as home health agencies instead. With federal steps in play, the hope is for real protection and restored trust in care for those who need it most.
