Show Notes
CBS News uncovers rampant fraud in Los Angeles County hospices, with over seven hundred out of eighteen hundred agencies showing warning signs. These include shared addresses, low patient numbers, high billing rates, and staff working at multiple agencies. Despite state efforts, the issues persist, with many hospices serving just a handful of patients. Hospice operators and building owners deny wrongdoing, but patterns suggest oversight gaps remain. California has halted new licenses and revoked over two hundred eighty, but the ongoing red flags highlight the need for stronger protections for end-of-life care.
