To combat Medicare fraud, this admin put a 6 month pause on new Medicare enrollments for new home health and hospice agencies.
Instead of using data to target the source of the problems, theyβre exploiting it for political gain by penalizing the people we need the most: home health aides and hospice workers.
Over 3/4ths of improper payments relate to document deficiencies β NOT fraud.
This is a training and compliance opportunity thatβs easy to fix β and our gov has the data that proves this out.
Instead of just giving us the facts, theyβre wasting our money on creating more false narratives.
We deserve better.
