A full and open probe
I am outraged by the alleged over-billing of the Medicaid program by Minnesota’s largest autism center, to the tune of $3 million.
If these charges are proven to be true, this is another example of government fraud and waste of taxpayers’ money. This, at a time when other health care providers are struggling to provide needed services to Medicaid patients at reimbursement rates that barely cover their costs.
The involvement of the Republican Party chairman and the U.S. attorneys office only adds to the questions that should be thoroughly investigated and brought to the public’s knowledge.
