Minnesota AG Targets Medicaid Fraud | Minneapolis News

Minnesota’s Attorney General Keith Ellison is cracking down on Medicaid fraud with major new charges against two operators who allegedly stole over $1.5 million from the program. Salman Ahmed Elmi and his company Reva Health are accused of billing for nonexistent or ineligible mental health services, faking documents, bribing patients for personal info, and employing unqualified staff — while some associates face sex trafficking charges. Separately, Mohamed Haji Rashid’s Liberty Home Health Care is charged with defrauding Medicaid of $300K by billing for services never rendered, including forcing staff to clock in extra hours and delivering minimal care. Ellison emphasized that such fraud hurts vulnerable Minnesotans and vowed to hold all perpetrators accountable — his Medicaid Fraud Control Unit has already secured over 340 convictions since he took office.
