Uncovered: Van Nuys Hospice Fraud Scandal - A podcast episode reveals a shocking hospice fraud scheme in Van Nuys, where operators registered fifteen hospices to the same suite, billing Medicare and Medi-Cal for millions despite having just one full-time employee each. The building, offering virtual offices, allowed hospices to circumvent rules by adding letters to suite numbers. Experts warn of red flags, including shared phone numbers and overlapping owners. Three hospices were decertified, and payments to ten tenants are frozen. Los Angeles has become a hotspot for hospice fraud, with numbers surging from 722 in 2018 to nearly 1800 today. Legitimate providers push for tougher rules to protect patients.
