A surprise federal inspection of two New York City senior care facilities has raised serious questions about how taxpayer-funded Medicaid dollars are being spent, with Dr. Mehmet Oz uncovering questionable attendance records, suspicious transportation charges, and billing practices that could signal a much larger problem.
Oz, who leads the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), visited two adult day care centers in Queens on October 20 as part of a broader federal effort to investigate suspected Medicaid fraud.
What investigators encountered was troubling.
