On the streets with Dr Oz as surprise fraud crackdown sends daycare directors scrambling

Published

on



FLUSHING, N.Y. — Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz confronted employees at two New York City senior care centers over suspected Medicaid fraud, challenging their billing practices as Digital got an exclusive look at the crackdown in action.

Oz, accompanied by senior federal health officials, delivered warning letters to Kent Senior Care and Evergreen Adult Day Care in Flushing, Queens, during a broader fraud crackdown that involved the FBI, the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General, the NYPD and other agencies.

The letters notified the facilities that their billing practices had raised concerns among federal authorities. The two visits by Oz were part of a broader crackdown in which CMS officials conducted more than 80 visits and delivered warning letters to providers across New York City on Tuesday.

Digital accompanied Oz as he pressed employees about questionable billing records and challenged their explanations for how taxpayer dollars were being spent.

«The whole experience was suspicious,» Oz told Digital in an exclusive interview following the visits.

Oz said federal authorities were conducting a broader crackdown that included arrests, search warrants and efforts to stop certain operators from billing Medicaid, although Digital did not independently witness those enforcement actions at either Queens facility.

Kent Senior Care declined comment during a phone call with Digital on Tuesday. Evergreen Adult Day Care did not immediately respond to Digital’s request for comment.

The first stop came around 8:30 a.m. at Kent Senior Care, where Oz entered the facility and personally handed its director a letter from the federal government notifying the business that its billing practices were under scrutiny.

«The bills are much higher than they should be,» Oz told the director. «The billing is for more people. It doesn’t look very crowded here.»

The director pushed back during the exchange, explaining that it was still early and additional seniors would arrive later in the morning, as Oz questioned whether the facility’s Medicaid billing records accurately reflected its actual attendance.

The occupancy of the space was 70 persons, according to an observe posted maximum occupancy sign on the wall.

«The bills we’re getting are as though it’s completely full all the time,» Oz said.

The director maintained that the facility billed only for seniors who actually attended, and that it required participants to sign attendance sheets.

«You’re getting this letter from the U.S. Government because we don’t believe you,» he told the director.

During the exchange, Oz also questioned why the center’s billing records appeared to reflect seniors attending five days a week when the director acknowledged that many participants typically attended only two or three days.

The director insisted the facility billed for actual attendance and said some seniors attended more frequently than others.

The confrontation intensified when Oz and other federal officials raised questions about specialized transportation services billed for seniors using wheelchairs.

«I don’t see any wheelchairs here,» Oz told the director.

Digital observed seniors inside the facility, including individuals using walking aids, but did not see anyone using a wheelchair during the visit.

Another official said billing records included charges for specialized wheelchair transportation, raising questions about whether the services had been provided and which company was responsible for submitting the charges.

The director said some seniors had mobility difficulties, including those recovering from strokes, and that the facility had wheelchairs available. He also said that workers could have copied information from previous files instead of properly updating the billing codes as it applied to wheelchair use.

«Probably he just copy and pasted,» the director said.

During the visit, Oz walked over to several mahjong tables set up inside the facility, questioning whether taxpayer dollars were being properly spent on the recreational activities offered through the Medicaid-funded program.

«Should the American taxpayers be paying so folks can play mahjong?» Oz asked the director.

The director defended the activity, explaining that mahjong helps seniors exercise their fingers, socialize and improve their memory, particularly those experiencing cognitive difficulties.

«It’s free for them, not free for the taxpayers,» Oz responded. «Is that what our federal tax dollars for Medicaid is supposed to go to? Or is it life-saving heart surgery? Or, you know, new therapies for cancer?»

Oz raised additional concerns about the facility’s attendance records after observing seniors entering without signing in, despite the director’s insistence that participants were required to document their attendance.

«People were just walking in there without signing anything,» Oz said. «And then after I showed up and he saw what we were doing with my team, he started collecting these documents to be signed.»

Oz said the apparent inconsistencies raised further questions about whether the facility’s attendance records accurately reflected the services being billed to Medicaid.

Digital also witnessed several seniors enter Kent Senior Care without immediately signing attendance sheets. Additional seniors who arrived later were instructed to sign in.

Social adult day care programs can provide eligible seniors with structured activities, supervision, meals and social support. Medicaid reimbursement depends on applicable program rules, individual eligibility and documentation of services provided.

TREASURY HAILS SUCCESS OF ANTI-FRAUD PROCESS THAT FLAGGED AND PREVENTED $99 MILLION IN PAYMENTS TO DEAD PEOPLE

At the second stop, Evergreen Adult Day Care, Oz confronted a floor manager over another set of billing discrepancies before examining the facility’s attendance records.

The manager told Oz that approximately 200 seniors attended the facility on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, compared with about 150 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, although it was unclear whether those figures represented total daily attendance or the number of seniors present at one time.

But Oz questioned those numbers after walking through the facility and observing significantly fewer people.

«So I look at maybe 25 people in the whole space now,» Oz said.

The manager disputed that estimate, explaining that some seniors were participating in classes while others had left to shop, visit a pharmacy or attend medical appointments.

«The numbers don’t seem to add up,» Oz responded.

Oz also questioned the manager about wheelchair-related billing, asking how many participants used wheelchairs.

The manager initially indicated that none did before acknowledging that a small number of seniors used them.

«But you said there weren’t any, were you?» Oz pressed.

He subsequently discussed the apparent discrepancy with other federal officials accompanying him.

«I’m struck by how few people are here as well,» Oz said. «This makes me wonder how they sustain these billing levels.»

The visit took another turn when Oz examined the facility’s attendance books, which he said contained «fraud.»

Digital observed sign-in sheets that appeared to contain names entered for Oct. 22, and Oct. 23, dates that had not yet occurred at the time of the visit.

The entries dated Oct. 22 and Oct. 23, both after the visit, raised questions about whether the facility was documenting attendance in advance, although Digital could not immediately establish whether the entries were completed attendance records or advance schedules.

Oz said federal authorities believed organized criminal networks were exploiting the Medicaid-funded programs by offering seniors money to attend facilities and then billing the government for services that were not actually provided.

Advertisement

Oz alleged that individuals he described as being connected to the «Chinese mafia» were paying some seniors between $1,000 and $1,200 to participate in fraudulent billing arrangements, though the administrator did not identify a specific criminal organization or provide supporting evidence during the interview.

Oz said the federal government had identified significant spikes in billing across the industry and claimed that annual spending on the programs had approached $1 billion.

«We know from the billing here that there’s no way this business is running in the way that they claim to be running without something being wrong,» Oz told Digital.

Advertisement

«Is it an innocent mistake? A hundred times in a row, I don’t think so.»

Oz alleged that proceeds from fraudulent Medicaid billing schemes were being used to finance other criminal activities, including money laundering and human trafficking, although Digital had not independently verified those connections or established any such link to the two facilities visited.

«It’s really a clubhouse for crime,» Oz said while describing the alleged broader scheme.

Advertisement

He said fraud accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic and criticized the previous administration for failing to address what he described as rapidly rising spending and suspicious billing.

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul acknowledged the crackdown on Tuesday, calling it part of a «massive effort to combat fraud and abuse» in Medicaid and confirming that state health officials had joined federal and state law enforcement in targeting suspected fraud at social adult day care programs.

While Oz personally delivered warning letters to the two Queens facilities, state, local and federal law enforcement officials were simultaneously conducting searches at other locations across New York City as part of the coordinated crackdown.

Specific details about the facilities targeted, individuals involved and evidence recovered were not immediately available as the investigations remained ongoing.

Judge Trump called a ‘lunatic’ abruptly backs off demand after showdown with DOJ No. 3

Published

on



A Biden- appointed judge embroiled in a fierce dispute with the Trump administration over the removal of hundreds of trees at a federally owned D. C. golf course reversed course during Monday’ s nearly seven- hour hearing.

Judge Ana Reyes ended the nearly seven-hour hearing by backing away from her initial demand that Justice Department attorneys arguing the case put their names alongside Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward Jr.’s Sunday filing. Reyes had invoked Rule 11, which requires attorneys to stand behind the factual basis of court filings and can subject them to sanctions for violations.

«Late breaking news,» Reyes said. «I’m going to withdraw request that DOJ refile yesterday’s brief with identification of who signed it. we’ve all got better things to spend our time on.»

The about-face from Reyes, who hours before the hearing was dubbed a «crazed lunatic» by President Donald Trump on Truth Social, is the latest development in a court battle over Trump’s plans to completely renovate East Potomac Golf Links into a «world-class, U.S. Open-caliber course.» The lawsuit, which was first filed in February, reached a boiling point earlier this month when the National Park Service removed roughly 430 trees at the golf course over a weekend. The Interior Department said the tree removals were part of a years-old plan to restore the course’s historic design and were unrelated to Trump’s proposed overhaul.

Though the action did not violate a court order, it prompted Reyes to impose a temporary restraining order barring further tree removals. She also was described as «screaming» at the administration attorneys during an Oct. 12 hearing.

The hearing prompted Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward to seek Reyes’ removal from the case, accusing her of bias and «open hostility» toward the Trump administration.

Both Woodward and Trump have called for the release of the court’s audio recordings of the hearings.

«The judge on the case is a crazed lunatic whose courthouse tapes will reveal, may be insane? The tapes have been blocked from usage by the judge,» Trump posted Monday hours before the hearing, saying the Trump administration has a «right» to turn the course into a «great, safe, and prestigious» golf course. «Work is scheduled to begin IMMEDIATELY! The finished product will be World Class, and bring income and great prestige back to D.C.»

Trump made two other tweets Sunday saying that Interior Department Secretary Doug Burgum and architect Tom Fazio had «developed a plan» to revamp the East Potomac Golf Links into a «World Class Championship Golf Course» and that work would begin November 15.

The tweets prompted Reyes to give the Justice Department an 8 p.m. filing deadline, saying Trump’s characterization conflicted with a previous filing that stated there was «no agency action» in Trump’s golf course plan.

The filing was signed only by Woodward, which immediately became a point of contention at the start of Monday’s hearing.

LIBERAL LAW PROFESSOR BREAKS WITH OBAMA JUDGE OVER TRUMP LAWYER CRACKDOWN: ‘I REFUSE TO TEACH’ IT

Reyes demanded that the attorneys «raise your hand» if they would sign the briefing, which Woodward said was «not an appropriate request.»

She then invoked Rule 11 and ordered them to the podium to sign the filing.

But Woodward and the attorneys refused. Reyes initially set a 3 p.m. deadline but later extended it until noon Tuesday and offered to allow the attorneys’ names to appear on the brief rather than requiring their signatures. In the end, she abandoned the demand completely.

«For those wondering, a common reason high level DOJ appointees sometimes signs briefs boils down to good leadership,» Abhishek Kambli, a former federal prosecutor, wrote on X. «If there is something that is likely to be contentious with a judge, a DOJ leader signs their name on the brief so that any issues someone has with the brief is directed at them rather than lower level attorneys. Regardless, it goes without saying that a decision such as this should not be something a judge is inquiring into.»

EXCLUSIVE: TRUMP’S DC JUDICIAL NEMESIS TARGETED IN MISCONDUCT COMPLAINT OVER ALLEGED BIDEN DOJ TIES

«DOJ line attorneys increasingly do not sign briefs because of Dem law fare. Dems have and continue to go after the bar licenses of young DOJ line attorneys who are simply executing on behalf of the department,» Rachel Boulvard, vice president of programs at the Conservative Partnership Institute, wrote on X.

Reyes, appointed by President Joe Biden in 2023, previously faced a Justice Department judicial-misconduct complaint over her handling of litigation challenging Trump’s restrictions on transgender individuals serving in the military.

During a February 2025 hearing, Reyes questioned a Trump administration attorney about what Jesus Christ would say about policies excluding transgender people from homeless shelters.

Then-DOJ Chief of Staff Chad Mizelle accused Reyes of «hostile and egregious misconduct» and potential bias in a formal complaint filed with the D.C. Circuit. The complaint was later dismissed, with the circuit’s chief judge concluding that a recusal motion was the proper avenue for challenging Reyes’ conduct.

Sea mine crisis re-emerges in Strait of Hormuz as Tehran urges Washington to accept deal

Published

on


NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Sea mines have resurfaced as a threat in the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran claimed Oct.17 that two oil tankers caught fire after striking the explosives, raising fresh alarms over the safety of one of the world’s most critical shipping lanes.

This came as the International Maritime Organization (IMO) warned that sea mines pose a serious threat to vessels navigating the strategic waterway and while Tehran continues to maintain its own unauthorized shipping corridor inside its territorial waters.

«The traffic separation scheme, the information that we have is that they still have mines. And of course, whilst the conflict is ongoing, it’s very difficult for us to use third parties to verify that it is clear of these hazards,» IMO Secretary-General Arsenio Dominguez told Fox News Digital.

«So in the meantime, we cannot guarantee that a vessel that intends to transit that route will not be hit by a mine.»

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) navy said Saturday that two oil tankers caught fire after striking naval mines while crossing the Strait of Hormuz, Reuters reported, citing Iran’s official Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA).

State media also said both tankers were carrying about 2 million barrels of crude oil, according to Reuters.

IRNA also reported that the vessels had switched off their positioning and radar systems and attempted to use a route through the strategic waterway that Iran had not authorized.

The second tanker was left immobilized after striking a mine, according to the Reuters report.

The alleged strikes came as Tehran continued to maintain its transit passageway inside Iranian territorial waters, imposing tolls and safety fees administered by the IRGC — a framework rejected by Washington and the IMO as inconsistent with international maritime law.

International shipping through the narrow chokepoint has historically relied on an IMO-approved traffic separation scheme adopted in 1968.

«Right now there’s only one route that was adopted back in 1968 that is approved and recognized for IMO and that appears in all the charts for the vessels to operate,» Dominguez explained.

«There’s only one route that should be used for transit, but it’s not clear of mines right now, so it’s not safe.»

«We have received confirmation from Iran about the establishment of its temporary route in the waters,» he added before stating that the route was not provided with «an official confirmation or a decision of the organization.»

«Any other route needs to actually be sent to the organization to go through the processes, and we have not received that.»

«We have received communication from Iran to use that route because of the conflict,» Dominguez clarified.

«That’s the way that it’s been presented. But anything for us to approve needs to go through the mechanisms at the international maritime organizations and the member states need to review it.»

The developments also came amid stalled negotiations between Washington and Tehran over ending the conflict and restoring maritime traffic.

Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council and a former Revolutionary Guard commander, said Tehran considered Washington’s latest response to negotiations «insufficient,» Reuters reported, according to IRNA.

Rezaei said the U.S. had accepted some of Iran’s seven conditions but that other issues remained unresolved, adding that Tehran was no longer responding to Washington and that the U.S. needed to clarify the outstanding matters.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that Tehran had submitted a proposal to Washington through Qatar, which is mediating the negotiations, outlining conditions under which the Strait of Hormuz could reopen and normal maritime traffic resume within seven days.

«Our situation is clear and based on ⁠the seven-day proposal presented to the US. They shared comments which ​we are reviewing, but our proposal is still on the table ​and if there is any honesty on the US part, which there isn’t, the way to reopening the Strait of Hormuz is obvious,» Araqchi said in ​Baghdad, Reuters reported

Meanwhile, attacks on commercial vessels around the Strait of Hormuz have surged over the past two weeks.

Senior Iranian officials also told Reuters that Tehran has shifted its strategy for attacking commercial vessels during that period.

For commercial shipping operators, Dominguez warned that the continued threat of mines and attacks means the waterway has yet to return to normal operations.

The Strait of Hormuz is «not open for business in the way that it was before the conflict started,» he said.

«Our role right now is to prepare for when we have the opportunity to go back, resume the operations, follow all the procedures at IMO, but not until the root causes are addressed and those are beyond IMO.»

Fox News Digital reached out to U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) for comment.

Guía para elegir un Smart TV sin gastar de más: qué debe revisar antes de comprar

Published

on



El televisor se ha consolidado como uno de los principales centros de entretenimiento del hogar. Sin embargo, elegir un Smart TV ya no depende únicamente del tamaño de la pantalla o del precio: el acceso a plataformas de streaming, la calidad de imagen, la conectividad y las funciones inteligentes también influyen en la decisión de compra.

Antes de comparar especificaciones, conviene preguntarse qué uso tendrá el equipo. Mientras algunos usuarios priorizan una pantalla amplia para ver películas, deportes o videojuegos, otros buscan un televisor compacto para una habitación, con acceso sencillo a sus aplicaciones favoritas y opciones para conectar otros dispositivos.

En ese escenario, la relación entre tecnología, precio y valor se convierte en uno de los principales criterios de compra.

La tecnología QLED utiliza puntos cuánticos para ampliar la reproducción del color en pantallas de hasta 85 pulgadas. (Material gráfico proporcionado por el equipo de Mercadeo de AIWA)

La propuesta de AIWA en Centroamérica y el Caribe cuenta con una oferta de Smart TVs que incorporan diferentes tamaños y tecnologías de pantalla, incluyendo alternativas HD, 4K y QLED, para responder a distintos espacios, necesidades y presupuestos.

Tamaño y tecnología: ¿qué conviene tener en cuenta?

La elección de la pantalla depende del espacio disponible, la distancia desde la que se verá el contenido y las preferencias de cada hogar. La resolución HD puede responder a necesidades cotidianas en pantallas compactas, mientras que 4K ofrece mayor nivel de detalle en contenidos compatibles.

Advertisement

La tecnología QLED, por su parte, utiliza puntos cuánticos para ampliar la reproducción del color. En el portafolio regional de AIWA pueden encontrarse desde alternativas compactas hasta grandes formatos, incluyendo modelos QLED de 55 y 85 pulgadas con resolución 4K.

Sin embargo, contar con más especificaciones no siempre significa hacer una mejor compra. La clave está en identificar cuáles características aportan valor al uso diario y cuáles se ajustan al presupuesto.

AIWA ofrece un año de garantía contra defectos de fábrica para televisores y monitores mediante centros autorizados. (Material gráfico proporcionado por el equipo de Mercadeo de AIWA)

Google TV y Roku TV: opciones para acceder al entretenimiento

El sistema operativo también influye en la experiencia de uso. Las plataformas inteligentes permiten acceder a aplicaciones y servicios de streaming desde el televisor, sin necesidad de recurrir a dispositivos externos para cada servicio.

Dentro de su oferta regional, AIWA incorpora modelos con Google TV y Roku TV. Google TV reúne aplicaciones y contenidos en una misma interfaz e integra, según el modelo, funciones como el Asistente de Google y Chromecast. Roku TV, por su parte, organiza aplicaciones y servicios de entretenimiento mediante un menú central de navegación.

En determinados modelos QLED, la experiencia se complementa con tecnologías como Dolby Vision y Dolby Audio, además de opciones de conectividad como Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HDMI y USB. La disponibilidad de estas características depende de la referencia, por lo que conviene verificar las especificaciones antes de comprar.

La ecuación precio y valor

Comparar televisores únicamente por su precio puede dejar por fuera aspectos importantes. Dos equipos con valores similares pueden ofrecer experiencias diferentes, mientras que pagar más por una pantalla no garantiza que todas sus funciones sean necesarias para el usuario.

Para evaluar la relación precio-valor, conviene revisar la calidad de imagen y sonido, el sistema operativo, las aplicaciones disponibles, las opciones de conexión y la facilidad de uso. Estos factores permiten determinar qué prestaciones justifican la inversión según las necesidades de cada hogar. Desde esta perspectiva, los Smart TV AIWA destacan por su relación precio-valor; ofrecen distintos niveles de equipamiento para que se pague por las funciones que de verdad se usarán.

La garantía también cuenta

El respaldo posventa es otro aspecto que conviene revisar antes de elegir un televisor. Según la información proporcionada por AIWA, la marca ofrece un año de garantía contra defectos de fábrica para televisores y monitores, sujeto a las condiciones aplicables y a la atención mediante centros de servicio autorizados.

La cobertura contempla mercados de Centroamérica y el Caribe como Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panamá, República Dominicana, Jamaica, Haití y Trinidad y Tobago, entre otros. Las condiciones de garantía, la disponibilidad de modelos y los distribuidores pueden variar según el país, por lo que es recomendable consultar la información vigente en el mercado correspondiente.

Este componente adquiere especial relevancia cuando se compara el verdadero costo de una compra. El precio es lo que se paga al momento de adquirir el producto; el valor también incluye la tranquilidad de contar con canales de atención y respaldo en caso de necesitarlo.

Elegir según las necesidades del hogar

No existe un único Smart TV ideal para todos. La decisión depende del espacio disponible, los contenidos que se consumen, las funciones que se utilizarán con frecuencia y el presupuesto.
