Dr. Oz says the Trump administration has already stopped $42 BILLION in suspected Medicare fraud by preventing the money from being paid out. And he says they’re going after much bigger networks, not just individual doctors or companies. Foreign governments, organized crime and massive schemes targeting seniors are all...

While families worried about rogue con artists fleecing the savings of their addlebrained elders, big time fraudsters set their sights on the addlebrained folks running our government. Go get 'em Dr. Oz!

They should also keep shutting off valves on additional $25-100m scams… one after the other (with prosecutions). Word will spread amongst the enemies.

This was an incredible segment. Before ending his interview with CNBC Squawk Box this morning, CMS Administrator Dr. Oz took a moment to sound the alarm on America’s $100 BILLION healthcare fraud epidemic. And then he dropped a line that really says it all: “They’re not just stealing your money, they’re stealing your health.” DR. OZ: “Can I touch on one last thing before I leave you?” BECKY QUICK: “Yeah, I was going to ask what your biggest goal is for this year?” DR. OZ: “We have got to deal with the fraud issues, and here’s why.” “They’re not just stealing your money, they’re stealing your health, because if they don’t care about stealing from poor people, they’ll take your health away, and they’re stealing the nation’s trust.” “Medicare and Medicaid were created in a high trust environment.” “We assumed people would do the right things. We now are experiencing about $100 billion of theft a year, much of it because of the Covid pandemic impact on teaching criminals to move into healthcare.” “And we believe if we could just take the fraud out of Medicare, we would double the life expectancy of the Medicare trust fund, which means not only would you have it for your retirement, but it could be there for your kids as well.” That last point is the bigger issue Oz was getting at. And if the administration can actually recover a meaningful portion of that money, Oz says the payoff could extend far beyond the current generation of Medicare recipients.

Finally, Dr. Oz shined a light on the even bigger problem lurking behind fraud: outright abuse and waste in the healthcare system. “And I'll leave you with one last thought,” he said. “In addition to the massive fraud, especially from foreign entities trying to invade America using their financial tools and criminal mindsets, we also have 25% of all of our money being spent probably subject to abuse.” He clarified the difference. “And that's not fraud. This is abuse and waste. Money not being used wisely.” To tackle this, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are rolling out a new model. “We just launched a new model called ‘Wiser’ with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation—that is looking at ways for us to identify inappropriate use of services, services that are wasteful and should not be offered to the American people because they could hurt them.” For Dr. Oz, this isn’t just about money. It’s also about keeping Americans safe. “They're not providing value for these wonderful Americans whose health is being taken advantage of to generate higher revenue for providers.” He closed with a promise that the fight isn’t stopping here. “We're not going to tolerate it anymore, and we're going to use data analytics, real-time monitoring—and unhesitating and unwavering pursuit of the law to make sure this happens.” This was a turning point in American healthcare. The era of waste, fraud and abuse is over.
