Dr. Mehmet Oz announced plans to decertify hospice providers accused of fraud, including identity theft and overbilling, during an exclusive interview with CBS News. He highlighted a CBS investigation revealing that over 700 hospices in Los Angeles County raised red flags for fraud, contributing to an estimated $198.1 million in suspected hospice fraud nationwide. California officials, rebutting Oz’s claims, emphasized their commitment to tackling hospice fraud through a multi-agency task force that has already revoked around 280 hospice licenses.
