Trump admin cracks down on estimated $10 billion in Obamacare fraud, boots millions from rolls

The Trump administration's Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) removed nearly three million people from Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) rolls, citing $10 billion in fraud between 2021 and 2024. A Biden-era enrollment spike led to a probe revealing improper and phantom enrollments, with 2.6 million such cases remaining. The Trump administration has since restored income verification and ended special enrollment periods.
