California Attorney General Rob Bonta Charges 21 People in $267 Million Hospice Fraud Bust

California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced charges against 21 individuals involved in a massive $267 million hospice fraud ring. The group allegedly used 14 different facilities to bill Medi-Cal and Medicaid for services that were never actually provided to patients according to state officials. Bonta emphasized that this enforcement action is necessary to protect taxpayer dollars and ensure that public health programs remain available for those who truly need them in a recent statement. The investigation focused on how these companies manipulated the healthcare system for profit. While the state celebrates the large bust, some observers have noted the long delay in addressing these systemic issues within the hospice industry.
