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 identified and removed 3 million fraudulent enrollees from the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) rolls, estimating $10 billion in fraud between 2021 and 2024. The Biden administration's relaxed eligibility checks and expanded enrollment periods contributed to a spike in improper and phantom enrollments, which the Trump administration is addressing through stricter verification and investigations.
