Vance ancam potong pendanaan negara bagian terkait penipuan medicaid

Wakil Presiden JD Vance mengumumkan pada Rabu bahwa pemerintahan Trump menahan penggantian biaya Medicaid sebesar $1,3 miliar dari California dan akan mengirimkan surat ke seluruh negara bagian untuk menuntut tindakan yang lebih tegas terhadap penipuan.

Berbicara dari Gedung Putih, Vance mengatakan pemerintah federal menunda pembayaran tersebut karena California dinilai tidak menangani penipuan dengan cukup serius. Para pejabat menyebutkan adanya penyalahgunaan yang meluas dalam sistem perawatan hospis di negara bagian tersebut dan telah menangguhkan 800 penyedia layanan dari penggantian biaya federal, menurut Administrator Pusat Layanan Medicare dan Medicaid, Dr. Mehmet Oz. Pemerintah saat ini sedang mengaudit Unit Pengendalian Penipuan Medicaid di tiap negara bagian dan dapat memangkas pendanaan anti-penipuan bagi negara bagian yang gagal menunjukkan penegakan hukum yang berarti.
