As Part of JD Vance's Anti-Fraud Task Force, Feds Raid Fake Hospice Fraudsters In California


The Patriot Oasis

@ThePatriotOasis

🚨BREAKING: Vice President JD Vance says his Fraud Task Force is NOT wasting time after the California raid this morning.

VANCE: "Our task force isn't wasting any time cracking down on fraud."

"This morning in the LA area, federal law enforcement is taking down fraudsters who stole $50M+ from Americans by defrauding our healthcare and hospice systems."

Remember earlier stories about, what, 89 "hospice care" "businesses" operating in a ten square block area of LA?

Hospice care is care for the terminally ill. It can be expensive, but the care is brief: Most people who enter hospice care die within two or three weeks.

That's not the case in the Hospice Care Businesses being raided. Astonishingly, after eight months of care for the terminally ill, these Modern Miracle Factories have achieved a ninety-seven plus percent survival rate. And I'm not making that number up, that's from the Fox video report below the fold.

Even though these Resurrection Mills are bringing the dead back to life, the anti-science thug JD Vance wants to arrest them instead of giving them all Congressional Medals of Super-Science!

NYP:

The home of a husband and wife who own a Southern California hospice accused of committing $7 million in fraud was raided by FBI agents in conjunction with Health and Human Services early Thursday morning.

The raid is one of several that took place as part of a massive federal effort to address widespread fraud in the state in coordination with Vice President JD Vance's Fraud Taskforce -- and the California Post was there.

In dramatic fashion, the couple, Amelou Gill and Gladwin Gill, who operate St. Francis Palliative Care in Anaheim, were arrested at their home by an FBI SWAT team as authorities sawed through the metal front gates of their property and called with loudspeakers for them to come out.

Dr. Mehmet Oz, the Administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, was on the scene as well and said the couple created a hospice in their daughter's name and bilked millions of dollars from taxpayers.

"Since 2022, there have been allegations, but for four years, what seems to be typical in California, nothing was done," he said.

Their hospice had a mortality rate of just 2.3% over the last five years, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Dr. Oz told the California Post that CMS has suspended "hundreds" of hospice licenses in California.

"In 10 weeks we're getting close to what Governor Newsom did in four years," he said.

...

Dr. Fariba Javaherian is a registered dermatologist, but according to CMS billing data obtained by The Post, she is associated with 63 hospice facilities across California either as a medical director, attending physician or in some other capacity.

Apparently there are millions of terminally ill patients dying of Problem Acne.


The National Provider Identifier (NPI) registered with Dr. Javaherian, a unique 10-digit number given to individual health care providers, was used for 1,662 unique patients across the 63 hospice agencies and appeared on more than 6,000 claims that billed $35,816,331.


Following The Post's investigation, CMS revoked Javaherian's license to bill Medicare and suspended the license of at least 16 hospice agencies associated with the dermatologist.

"Dr. Javaherian's white coat was a costume," CMS Administrator Dr. Oz said. Javaherian is not accused of any wrongdoing.

Remember, the very very smart Smarties of the Left insisted that JD Vance's posting as anti-fraud task force commissioner was some kind of political setback, because it's a big waste of time because Fraud Is Fake. The Science (TM) says so.

While the reality is 100% the opposite. I'm not a JD Vance booster any longer, but conservative voters are keen to finally have fraud investigated and punished after seventy years of politicians promising that to us, and they will reward Vance for doing the job that until now American politicians just wouldn't do.

And there is billions more in fraud to be discovered in Gruesome Newsom's California shithole alone:

Congress finally got off their butts and passed a law to eject any immigrant that commits welfare fraud.

When do we see the bills to eject any immigrant that commits healthcare, visa, and welfare fraud?

If those passed now, we might have a fair election come November.

The lower-level frontmen, yes. But this is almost certainly all run by organized crime at the top. The LA hospice care fraud is reportedly run by the Russian and Armenian (!) mobs.

Remember all the mass looting of jewelry and department stores that was happening a lot during covid? All organized by gangs and the mob.

Yep. A lot of Medicare and Medicaid fraud is organized crime. Some of the cartels that were operating in South Florida in the 70s and 80s got out of the drug game and moved to healthcare fraud.

Odd case. It seems the slut-whore tramp trollop mother did identify one of the two twin retards as the father. It was the other retard who sued to have custody. Odd.

I believe there are ways to determine even among identical twins which is the father, although it's very expensive and far more than just a typical paternity test.

BREAKING: Swalwell NDA Sexual Abuse story heating up FAST!
My anonymous source is reporting a major media outlet is talking to THREE women this afternoon; one has receipts and one is a former Kamala Harris staffer.


My guess is that Katie Porter is trying to hustle Swalwell off the race. Presently two Republicans are taking up the top of the "jungle" primary. Which means no Democrats will be in the runoff.
If Swalwell sinks below 10%, Porter stands to benefit from whatever women are still supporting that flatulent sleaze (and from simps). This might put her in second place which means she'll win the runoff.

sadly the support from the pundit-sphere and GOP party politics is not "who will be the best person for the job," but "who will be the best person for MY job."
Vance is not connected to old money and old power centers, and most of the big punditry is deeply tied to those.
He IS tied to new money and tech bros, and he IS charming and dedicated, and he did grow up in one of the disposable fly-over states IS the son of an addict who's drugs came through a network overseen by cartels, the CIA and enabled by foreign wars.

He has the wrong friends and the wrong relatives, and as usual they do not call him white trash because he is disposable, they call him white trash as a pretext for disposing of him.

He can't admit that he's already converted. He's the freaking head of the Gay Church of England.

Anyway, I hope there's a few more of these late-night raids. That Gill couple in cuffs and PJs looking all stunned might scare a few people.

Better still if the FBI starts raiding the passive facilitators who failed to report these crimes, with a loud warning that if you know anything, you are legally obligated to speak up, and you could be jailed if you don't.

The UK is done, over, shotski. A muslim cesspool island with a retarded king and a PM with a vag. A conquered, defeated, rotting corpse of a country. Its the end of the brits as we know it...and I feel fine.

402 Anyone have any two-seam fastball coaching tips?


Overhand 2 seam ain't a 3/4 2 seam, much less a sidearm 2 seam.

403 I've been doing HC fraud for almost 25 years, and since I'm almost 29, I started in my yute. Could tell crazy stories. Matter of fact, look up Acrotomophilia and Apotemnophilia and that was wrapped up in one of my cases.

405 Travel sports are an insane racket that destroy kids' bodies and parents' bank accounts, for no real reason.

Bank account, sorta. Body, no. The Army did a hell of a lot more damage in 20+ years to my lifer son's body than playing hockey in 4 states and Canada for 11.
Plus, he had a helluva good time, and I drank a lot of beer in Pizza parlors all over the west.

406 A block in the Strait of Hormuz—a crucial artery for 20% of global oil—would most severely impact Asian economies due to high import dependency, particularly China, India, Japan, and South Korea. Pakistan and Bangladesh are also exceptionally vulnerable due to limited alternative energy sources, potentially forcing emergency measures. AI Overview, citing CNBC among other.

Again.
Block oil and/or fuel exports, except to Japan and S. Korea.
US fuel prices plummet, European prices rocket.
Now, UK, France, Spain, etc. What are you going to do?
