that explains it!
Equal to whatever billing fraud is found, would be the fact 40 agencies are involved with the raids.
Ping?
It’s a shame DOD didn’t do an investigation of the VA and insurance companies when it came out they were stealing the death insurance benefits from veterans. But I’m sure they care anyway—care they got caught?
Don't be too sure. My lawyer nephew recently joined the Inspector General's office of our state health and human services department. They investigate Medicare fraud. He's disgusted at the sloth in that department. Attorneys sleeping at their desks, little-to-no real investigations underway. It's a bunch of libs collecting their state salaries. He's now thinking of moving out of state.
Don't expect much from anyone in public service.
“Lawrence County Sheriff Jeff Lawless ...”
FORTY AGENCIES were needed for this bust?
F-O-R-T-Y....?
It’s a scandal that 40 agencies exist for ALL puposes combined.
Is THIS what our forefathers had in mind, when thinking of limited government..?
The problem is NOT Dr. Tsai, it’s not even that cryto socialist medicine exists —it’s that we TOLERATE this explosion in government.
FORTY AGENCIES showed up for this show..!!
40..!!!
Before congressional aides started napping on their desks, when a study came out showing massive fraud, there were congressional hearings and panic and misery for lazy bureaucrats. No more. Everyone is napping.
Overtime.
Coal Grove is just across the river from Ashland, KY.
Just take the Willis Bridge over from Ashland and you're right there! But you'll have to take the Williamson Bridge back to Kentucky.
