Combating Nursing Home Fraud Results in Millions Being Paid to the Government and Whistleblowers

Fraud and corruption is rife in the long term care industry. This is especially true in nursing home facilities, where billions of tax dollars are spent caring for veterans, the poor and the elderly.

Nursing home fraud not only endangers the public health, but results in billions of wasted tax dollars due to unlawful overpayments by Medicare, Tricare, Medicaid and other government health programs. Government prosecutors are aware of the corruption and have highlighted tools that they and the public have to combat this scourge.
