🧵THREAD: Is Brooklyn, NY a Medicaid fraud hotspot? Brooklyn, NY has a home care billing industry that defies belief. One zip code (11232, Sunset Park) has 30,181 residents and $3.8 BILLION in Med...

SummaryAn investigation into Brooklyn, NY Medicaid home care billing reveals suspicious patterns: one zip code (11232) has $3.8 billion in claims despite having only 30,181 residents and low poverty rates, with multiple agencies billing 6,000+ beneficiaries monthly from strip malls and storefronts with no online presence. The data suggests possible fraud tied to aggressive CDPAP enrollment expansion and Medicaid rate increases following NYC's 2018 minimum wage hike, with New York accounting for two-thirds of all personal care aide billing nationally.Feb 14, 202614 tweets♥ 29.5K
