INDIANA – Attorney General Todd Rokita today announced that his office has played a key role in a major nationwide enforcement action against doctors, nurses, and other licensed medical professionals for alleged participation in healthcare fraud schemes.
The Indiana Attorney General’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit has conducted multiple criminal investigations into alleged Medicaid fraud, leading to charges in connection with the nationwide initiative. As of June 23, eight cases have been filed in various counties.
Since taking office in January 2021, Attorney General Rokita’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU) has secured more than $100 million in taxpayer funds lost to provider welfare fraud through nearly 100 separate civil and criminal recoveries.
“Medicaid exists to protect our most vulnerable Hoosiers — not to line the pockets of greedy providers,” said Attorney General Todd Rokita. “When unethical professionals steal from these programs, they don’t just commit fraud — they betray taxpayers and hurt the very people who need help most. My office will continue to partner with the Trump Administration and others to hunt down these criminals, recover every dollar possible, and ensure they are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”…
