🚨 JUST IN: CMS Administrator Dr. Oz and JD Vance expose migrant-run autism fraud schemes in Tim Walz’s Somali Minnesota, where criminals pay $1K to falsely enroll children as autistic
“They claim autism and bill Medicaid!”
$260M in payments has now been frozen
English
🚨 JUST IN: Trump official Dr. Oz just said he found SOMALI AUTISM FRAUD in Maine and is now launching an investigation
The autism spending SURGED by more than 50% all of a sudden, "clustered in small geographic areas, just like it did in Minnesota."
I want every pirate deported.
"It looks like another governor left the cash register unattended and criminals helped themselves to your hard-earned money. Rest assured, we're gonna get to the bottom of this."
English
🇺🇸 Dr. Oz is bringing receipts on the Autism funds fraud in Minnesota:
"Minnesota expected to spend $3M for autism. It's now $400M. Why?!"
We all wanna know the answer to that.

You’ve probably heard about Minnesota’s fraud problems. Maine also needs to clean up its act.
Last month, HHS investigators released a report that identified at least $45 million in improper payments to the state’s Medicaid-funded treatment program for children with autism.
Somali fraudsters in Minnesota stole millions from a similar program, and we’re seeing all the same red flags in Maine:
Rapid growth in payouts (over 50% in just four years)
Treatment centers clustering in small geographic areas
Insufficient documentation of autism diagnoses
Lack of effective state oversight
Other programs, including interpreter services and personal care, are also raising red flags.
That’s why, today, we sent Gov. Janet Mills and her state health commissioner a letter outlining our concerns and requesting additional information.
We want to know what MaineCare is doing to 1) prevent fraud, 2) identify fraud when it happens, 3) ban dishonest providers from billing the system, and 4) recover stolen or misspent taxpayer funds.
If we’re not satisfied with their answers, CMS is ready to take action.
Gov. Mills has 30 days to respond. The clock is ticking.

WOW 🚨 Fraud Prevention Committee finds Minnesota Autism Centers WEREN’T REQUIRING LICENSING
When they recently switched to require licensing, of the 500 autism centers ONLY 6 applied
This means 98.8% of Minnesota Autism centers WERE LIKELY FRAUDULENT
“Jaw-dropping facts revealed today concerning fraud at Minnesota's Autism Centers, the Legislature's Fraud Prevention Committee met focusing on EIDBI benefits, better known as Autism centers.
Prior to the Department of Human Services, placing the program on the list of high risk programs for fraud, they were not legally allowed to perform an unannounced site visit at the 500 Autism centers in the state.
Because when the state legislature created the program, they didn't require Autism centers to be licensed — Now that the state is requiring licenses, how many of those 500 Autism centers have applied so far? Only 6 raising questions about how many of them offer legitimate services.”

.@DrOzCMS details just a fraction of the fraud in Minnesota: One scheme involved criminals paying moms $1,000 to enroll their children — falsely — as autistic, then billed Medicaid millions of dollars for services that were never rendered.

🚨 @VP: "We have decided to temporarily halt certain amounts of Medicaid funding that are going to the state of Minnesota in order to ensure that the state of Minnesota takes its obligation seriously to be good stewards of the American people's tax money."

“I am officially announcing the war on fraud to be led by our great Vice President JD Vance...We're going to take care of this problem. We are not playing games.” 🇺🇸
English
NEW: JD Vance and Dr Oz announce
the admin is temporarily halting certain amounts of Medicaid funding in Minnesota in order to push the state to investigate fraud.

Walz has 60 days to respond.

“There are schemes in Minnesota where criminals pay moms $1,000 in order to enroll their children as being AUTISTIC”
The TRUTH is coming out
English
🚨 BREAKING: Dr. Oz and JD Vance just confirmed “immigrant” AUTISM FRAUD is RAMPANT in Minnesota, and now the Trump admin is withholding a QUARTER BILLION in payments to the state
“There are schemes in Minnesota where criminals pay moms $1,000 in order to enroll their children as being AUTISTIC. Falsely and dishonestly claiming their children are autistic, then they BILL MEDICAID.”
“These schemes DISPROPORTIONATELY involve immigrant communities.”
The Somali fraud pyramid in Minnesota is CIRCLING THE DRAIN 🔥
English
