Vance’s task force aims to shut down half of LA’s hospices.
The Trump administration’s Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, led by Vice President JD Vance, reported that it has shut down hundreds of hospices and health care providers over a 10-week period.
Vance’s task force, established by presidential executive order on March 16, has been working with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to crack down on health care fraud.
‘Remember, none of this fraud could happen unless California issued these licenses.’
CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz told Fox News Digital on Thursday that 221 hospice and health care providers in Los Angeles County had been suspended.
“We’ve shut down already, just in the last 10 weeks, 221 hospices in California,” Oz told Fox News Digital, noting that all of the entities were located in Los Angeles.
We were obviously too generous and trusting. We’re learning of our mistakes and adjusting to correct our course.
