A woman's discovery that she had been enrolled in hospice care came as a shock, given her relatively good health. She had only been visiting her doctor for occasional checkups. However, a Medicare worker informed her that the system indicated she had heart failure. This case is part of a larger issue of fraud in the hospice industry.
The problem is particularly pronounced in certain areas, where scammers have exploited weak government oversight. Fraudsters have resorted to creating fake hospices, tricking people into enrolling, or stealing identities to bill Medicare for services.
