Show Notes

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent launches a new whistleblower program to combat fraud and recover billions in stolen taxpayer funds, targeting scams in Medicaid, Medicare, government relief, and Covid-era payouts, among others. Tipsters can earn up to 30% of recovered funds, with the program already receiving 700 leads since its inception. The initiative, part of the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, faces challenges in states with opaque records, but experts believe the incentives could dismantle fraud rings and return funds to everyday Americans.
