There are so many fraudulent Medicare claims that there is no need to have a Fraud Department. The money would be better spent hiring prosecutors who will actually prosecute and punish fraud.

Also, if Medicare said they had other complaints about the company, why did they send them $5,600 of taxpayer money?
Yes if they don’t prosecute and get convictions then what’s the point. I called the Doctors office and I believe that he is in on the scam because he recommended the equipment using My Medicare information! That ****es me off !
