If true, $500M of fraud (over only 5 years!) is hard to fathom considering it is a small clinic. I'm wondering how it wasn't discovered before it got to this level. You'd think that even $100M would have set off alarms somewhere.
I can't wait for them to do this to the military black budget one day.
maybe this is reading too much into it, but might this be evidence that government health care funds are poorly managed and pay out too much, too often, asking too few questions in the process?
