Medicaid Fraud & Next Steps for Congress with Senior Research Fellow at Advancing American Freedom Foundation Rachel Greszler

Senior Research Fellow at Advancing American Freedom Foundation Rachel Greszler joined the program to discuss growing concerns over Medicaid fraud and what Congress can do to strengthen oversight and accountability within the system. Greszler explained how improper payments, loopholes, and weak verification processes continue to cost taxpayers billions of dollars each year while potentially diverting resources away from the Americans who truly need assistance. She also outlined several policy reforms lawmakers are considering, including stricter eligibility checks, improved state reporting requirements, and enhanced anti-fraud enforcement measures aimed at protecting both patients and taxpayers while preserving the long-term sustainability of Medicaid.
