Federal government Freezes $1B in State Medicaid Payments to California and Minnesota

Good news! Bravo! That is only two states!

"Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Tuesday that the federal government is freezing more than $1 billion in Medicaid payments to California and Minnesota over suspected fraud.

California’s share tops $867 million, including $646 million tied to in-home care, where spending grew at twice the national rate. 
Minnesota’s $200 million spans 14 high-risk programs.

Kennedy said the payments will return once both states document that the claims are legitimate."
