WASHINGTON — Vice President JD Vance on Wednesday announced new steps in the Trump administration’s initiative to root out fraud in federal health programs, including a $1.3 billion deferral in Medicaid reimbursements to California.
“These fraudulent health care providers are getting rich by giving people medications they don’t even need,” Vance said during an event at the White House, adding that taxpayers and program beneficiaries are victimized by such fraud.
