Fraud in Senior Care Services

So in Flushing, Queens, in this area, you have these adult daycares.

They're like play date centers for seniors, for Koreans.

Yeah, so if they don't wanna be alone in their

house, and they're, they're, they're

picked up at their home and taken to this center.

Exactly, and we pay for it. And then right around them they have all

these

pharmacies set up. They have all these durable medical

equipment companies set up.

And it's just like this big racket where they start billing all these

people with these medical beneficiary numbers from these seniors from these

adult

daycares. And because they make so much money from

Medicaid, they're then able to

give kickbacks to the seniors. So you have these Korean and Chinese

mafias quite literally, uh, looting the government from Medicaid,

and then giving

the kickbacks to the seniors.

So wait, the old people get the money, get money themselves?

Well, they make the, these... They make so much money,

these pharmacies and these

adult daycares, that they then have a little referral

program set up for these

seniors.

Ah.

So it's like, "Uh, bring in a friend, we'll give you 100 bucks.

Thank you for coming, here's your $25."

Well, it's good money if you can get it.

I guess, so when, when you, when you see this, and it,

it's so pervasive,

uh, w-

what can be done to put an end to this?

Because this seems like the biggest entrepreneurial activity

of, of, you know, of certain immigrant classes now.

I mean, this is a big business for the immigrant

community.

Yeah, it's fraud-trepreneurship.

Fraud-trepreneurs, hmm.
