Childcare / Healthcare Fraud Investigation Underway in Ohio

Childcare / Healthcare Fraud Investigation Underway in Ohio President Trump and the Republicans are in a race against time when it comes to turning the economy around - Editorial Nick Shirley, the 23-year-old investigative reporter, has uncovered massive healthcare and childcare fraud in the State of Minnesota, largely focused around the Somalian community. The Trump Administration, in response to the videos that have gone viral on social media, has dispatched multi levels of federal government, including the Justice Department, to investigate the claims of massive fraud. The second-largest Somalian population resides in Columbus, Ohio. Urgent calls have gone out, calling for state officials and the DeWine Administration to investigate the same type of facilities, as fraud is suspected in Ohio. State Rep. Josh Williams sent a letter, cosigned by forty-one State Representatives, urging Kara Wente, Director of the Department of Child and Youth, to launch unannounced inspections of child care and health care facilities, specifically in the Columbus area, to ensure accountability. This move comes as a result of public reports, alleging that certain child care facilities participating in publicly-funded childcare/healthcare programs, are fraudulently billing the State of Ohio for children who are not in attendance. The Auditor of State Keith Faber has launched his own investigation into the home health care programs, as there is suspected fraud, largely focusing on the Franklin County area. This issue is exploding nationally and here in Ohio. Tune in and tell a friend.
