DW Investigates The Blueprint For Billions"},"content":{"rendered":"<p> <br \/>\n<\/p>\n<div style=\"position:relative\" data-narration-container=\"true\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">On Monday, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Daily Wire<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight:400\"> reported on the massive alleged fraud plaguing Ohio\u2019s Medicaid program. Our investigative team has uncovered shocking facts surrounding alleged fraud and what appear to be hundreds of shell companies bilking taxpayers out of perhaps billions of dollars. And Vice President JD Vance has already vowed to track it all down, putting out a tweet pledging that he would look into what was going on, writing, \u201cI\u2019m directing the task force to look into it and take immediate action to prosecute any fraudsters involved and stop all further payments as appropriate.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">So we are already getting action here at <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Daily Wire<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight:400\">. This is why <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Daily Wire<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight:400\"> exists \u2014 not just to entertain you, but to change the world in better ways. Luke Rosiak, who is our senior investigative reporter, has presented the second part of his large-scale investigative series, reporting on the extent of Medicaid fraud in Ohio.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">He points out that there are seven buildings along East Dublin Granville Road in Columbus, Ohio, that are filled with hundreds of offices, which are owned by a company called Cordoba Real Estate. Almost every tenant in the building bills Medicaid as a home health care business that provides low-skilled, usually non-medical, care to elderly or disabled people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Basically, it seems very much like what Nick Shirley was uncovering in Minnesota. Essentially, we have gigantic buildings that are filled with \u201chome health care providers,\u201d but completely empty of people. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Daily Wire<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight:400\"> has video of Luke Rosiak walking through the halls in an empty office building in Ohio, where presumably millions of dollars are flooding through.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">This, of course, is a scam. According to Luke\u2019s reporting, the Cordova-owned buildings in Columbus have 288 businesses registered with Medicaid. Together, they charge taxpayers more than a quarter of $1 billion between 2018 and 2024. In a city where there are only about 6,200 people who are 75 or older on Medicaid. Apparently, at one address, there are 80 companies that collectively billed at least $73 million to Medicaid and received $23 million from the state of Ohio.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Again, shocking levels of what appear to be alleged fraud. And again, Luke is talking to one of the employees at Cordova Road, who admits the government basically pays people to take care of their own family in the Cordova Office building at 1425 East Dublin Granville Road.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Daily Wire<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight:400\"> finally located a business suite with somebody in it, GC Home Health Care, LLC. When asked how they recruit employees, the response was, \u201cEmployees and patients come as a package.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/episode\/ben-shapiro-ep-2419?elementPosition=2&amp;row=5&amp;rowHeadline=Latest+Episodes&amp;rowType=Horizontal+Show+Episodes+Carousel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-981859\" src=\"https:\/\/dw-wp-production.imgix.net\/2025\/10\/ben-banner.avif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"171\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dw-wp-production.imgix.net\/2025\/10\/ben-banner.avif 1024w, https:\/\/dw-wp-production.imgix.net\/2025\/10\/ben-banner-300x50.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dw-wp-production.imgix.net\/2025\/10\/ben-banner-768x128.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto,  (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Seventy percent of the employees are just being paid to spend time with their own family members. The \u201cpatient\u201d has someone in their family who has the qualifications to be an aide, so they just come together. They acquire approval from a doctor vouching for the elder\u2019s need for personal services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The family member of that elderly person isn\u2019t set up to build Medicaid, so a company stands in the middle. \u201cI mean, we\u2019re just taking a small cut because, you know, they pay us and then we pay them for the hour,\u201d the employee says. The number of hours depends on a doctor\u2019s recommendation, but it\u2019s often an hour a day. The employee continues, \u201cWhy \u2014 do you expect them to take time off work just to take care of [a family member]?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">So, there has to be some sort of benefit. Rosiak asks him why people wouldn\u2019t simply help their aging parents with basic tasks out of human decency. The answer: \u201cThe government can pay you to do it. I mean, people see that as lucrative.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Unbelievable stuff. Are you, as a taxpayer, willing to subsidize people to take care of their own aging parents?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">It\u2019s crazy. Rosiak reports that there is one home health care service called Omega, which charged taxpayers $11 million between December 2017 and October 2024. Omega was incorporated in 2011 by Mohamud Jama, a Democratic politician. Jama founded a newspaper called the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight:400\">Somali Post<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight:400\">, and also a Somali coffeehouse, and has been affiliated with the Somali Education Resource Center, which received $6 million in federal aid in 2023, all on top of raising nine kids and working as an engineer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">When he ran for state Senate as a Democrat in 2024, that home health care business was not even mentioned in his profile. Great.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">We also have to, as taxpayers, subsidize people running for the state legislature as they clear millions of dollars in cash. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/how-was-the-medicaid-millionaires-machine-built-dw-investigates-the-blueprint-for-billions\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday, Daily Wire reported on the massive alleged fraud plaguing Ohio\u2019s Medicaid program.
