Whether you’re a farmer, rancher, senior, or veteran, quality healthcare shouldn’t be determined by where you live. @DrOzCMS, @POTUS, and Republicans in Congress @HouseGOP are bringing quality health care to rural communities around the country.

200 DAYS. ONE MISSION: PROTECT THE AMERICAN TAXPAYER. Two hundred days ago — on April 7 — the National Fraud Enforcement Division (@DOJFraudDiv) was created. Today, it is the tip of the spear in the fight against fraudsters who steal hundreds of billions of dollars from the American people every year. In the last 200 days, @TheJusticeDept has announced more than 1,200 major fraud enforcement actions across the country, including: 🔹 The Minnesota Fraud Takedown — 15 defendants charged in connection with more than $90 million in alleged fraud (@DMNnews / @FBI / @HSI_HQ / @SecKennedy / @DrOzCMS / @OIGatHHS) 🔹 The June Massachusetts Benefit Fraud Operation — 15 defendants, including 11 illegal aliens, charged in connection with alleged benefit fraud schemes (@DMAnews1) 🔹 The National Health Care Fraud Takedown — 455 defendants charged in connection with more than $6.5 billion in alleged fraud (@OIGatHHS / @DEAHQ) 🔹 The Los Angeles Homeless Services Fraud Cases — multiple defendants charged in connection with allegedly defrauding funds meant to serve the homeless (@SecretaryTurner / @HUDOIG) 🔹 The Heartland Fraud Surge — approximately $245 million in alleged pandemic loan fraud uncovered in an 80-day surge, with @FBIDirectorKash, @SBA_Kelly, @SBAOIG, @USLaborIG, and other partners 🔹 The Ghost Daycare Takedown — 10 defendants charged in connection with allegedly operating ghost daycares in San Diego, California (@SDCAnews / @HSI_HQ) 🔹 The Social Security Fraud Surge — 17 defendants charged in 28 days in connection with the alleged theft of Social Security benefits (@TheSSAOIG) 🔹 The National Tax Enforcement Surge — more than $490 million in alleged tax fraud exposed in the Department's first-ever national tax fraud surge, with @IRS_CI, @USTreasury, and 35 U.S. Attorneys' Offices (@USAttorneys) 🔹 The SNAP Benefits Enforcement Surge — nearly $42 million in alleged SNAP fraud uncovered in a 50-day surge with @USDA and @OIGUSDA (enough to feed 220,000 Americans for the entire month of October) 🔹 The California Health Care Fraud Takedown — 15 defendants in Los Angeles charged in connection with alleged health care fraud schemes totaling nearly $2 billion (@USAttyEssayli) These are only a fraction of the cases announced in the last 200 days. Every single day, in districts across the country, @TheJusticeDept prosecutors and our partner agencies are attacking the schemes that drain the programs needy Americans depend on. None of this happens by accident. Thank you to @POTUS, whose directive to declare war on fraud created this Division and set its mandate; to @VP Vance, whose leadership and resolve are stopping the scamming of the American people; to @AGToddBlanche, who signed the memorandum that brought the Fraud Division into existence and who leads our pursuit of justice every single day; to the @WHFraudTF, which has brought together a whole-of-government response to the fraud epidemic gripping our country; and to the public servants across our partner agencies— too many to count — who are in the trenches with us every day to bring fraudsters to justice. To those defrauding the American taxpayer: there is no case too big, no case too small, and no place to hide. Stop your lies. Stop your deceit. We are 200 days old — and just getting started on our mission to protect and defend the hard-earned tax dollars of the American people. Stay tuned next week for more MAJOR fraud announcements. 🇺🇸 REPORT FRAUD: America.gov/fraud LEARN MORE ABOUT THE FRAUD DIVISION: Justice.gov/fraud

A major Victory for the Sunshine State. The Trump administration and CMS are delivering real, measurable results for Florida. This historic $193 million investment modernizes our rural infrastructure, empowers local healthcare providers, and ensures top-tier medical care is accessible in every corner of our state.
From the Panhandle to the Keys, Rural Health Transformation is reaching communities across Florida, made possible thanks to President Trump’s Working Families Tax Cuts. 🌴 $193.7 MILLION to 45 organizations will expand tele-health, mobile health, preventive and specialty care — supported by more than 500 partnerships working to bring quality healthcare closer to rural Floridians.

Healthcare in Alaska is different, and we need different solutions. That’s why I’ve been proud to support Rural Healthcare Transformation funding for Alaska. We’ve brought nearly $250 MILLION across 254 projects to Alaska this year alone to strengthen rural healthcare - part of over $1 Billion+ in investment over the next 5 years. That means portable X-rays in village clinics, telehealth for expectant mothers, training for the next generation of Alaska healthcare workers and community health aides, and better technology to help patients get care close to home. These investments will expand treatment options in some of our most remote communities, bringing better care directly to Alaskans. cms.gov/newsroom/press-relea…

15 New York social adult daycare centers audited — all 15 failed to produce records showing a single meal served, activity provided, or hour of supervision… only attendance sheets. Yet these centers are billing Medicaid millions of taxpayer dollars. Millions paid. No documented services.

CMS delivered monitoring letters to nearly 100 adult social day care centers in Queens whose Medicaid billing far exceeds their peers. Our message is simple: We see your claims. Every dollar billed to Medicaid better be legitimate — and documented.

Huge win for rural healthcare! The $219 million investment in access to healthcare across rural communities in Georgia is just another win delivered by The Working Families Tax Cuts. Thanks to President Trump and his Administration's commitment to rural communities, the Rural Health Transformation Program funding will help expand access to healthcare, strengthen rural hospitals, support our healthcare workforce, and bring innovative services to the communities that need them the most. I will always fight for the hardworking people of GA-14 and ensure our rural communities have access to the quality healthcare they deserve!

Enough is enough. CMS joined law enforcement on the ground in Queens as part of the largest enforcement action of its kind targeting New York’s social adult day care program. We’re done playing catch-up with fraudsters. The days of paying first and chasing criminals later are over.

What looks like a small-time fraud scheme can be the tip of a much larger criminal operation. Organized crime networks are exploiting programs meant to help vulnerable Americans. We’re following the money, exposing the fraud, and protecting taxpayer dollars. These programs are meant to fund care, not criminal empires.

Too many West Virginia communities depend on rural health care for us to let this opportunity pass us by. That’s why I voted for the Working Families Tax Cuts, which created the $50B Rural Health Transformation Program. We need to make every dollar count for our state. wvnews.com/theet/opinion/col…

See something? Speak up. Report suspected fraud at america.gov/fraud. Your tip can help protect taxpayer dollars — and if it leads to criminal charges, you may qualify for a cash reward. Do your part for America.
