@wcnc_charlotte: Historic Medicaid fraud bust: Over 300 people charged with over $14 billion in alleged schemes The Justice Department announced what it's calling the largest health care fraud takedown in U.S. history on Monday, charging more than 300 people in connection with over $14 billion in alleged schemes. Here in the Carolinas, the alleged scams cheated taxpayers out of more than $20 million, according to state and federal prosecutors. Multiple agencies worked across state lines to uncover not one, but two separate fraud schemes operating in North Carolina and South Carolina. The larger case, dubbed "Operation Border War," involves Donald Saunders of Charlotte and seven co-conspirators who allegedly stole over $21 million from South Carolina's Medicaid program. State officials say the suspects targeted the most vulnerable patients. #fraud #healthcare #crime #politics #medicaid #medicare #southcarolina #northcarolina #health #criminals #scam #scamwarning

Just plead the 5th 75 times. Worked great for Florida’s Senator Rick Scott when he committed Medicare & Medicaid fraud.

They stole from us guys. Now we are paying for it with cuts to Medicare and if your old and on your death bed they will confiscate your home. You will have nothing to leave your children because the government didn't do their job.
