Vice President JD Vance spoke about the most recent efforts of the White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, in which the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services is removing 760,000 ineligible people from Obamacare.\n<\/p>\n
The vice president explained, \u201cWe\u2019re actually making sure that the people receiving Obamacare subsidies are actually entitled to receive them. Amazingly, we weren\u2019t doing that before.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
\u201cIn one case, we found a fraud ring that had 40 brokerage agents who had funneled 50,000 people into the Obamacare system fraudulently. Now, some of those people were probably legitimate,\u201d Vice President Vance continued. \u201cMost of those people were not eligible. Either they didn\u2019t meet the citizenship or the income requirements. Many of those people quite literally didn\u2019t even exist.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
He concluded, \u201cWe had a system in this country that rewarded brokers, that made people rich for enrolling fake people in programs that are meant to ensure that our fellow citizens have healthcare. This was a scandal.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
