Agree that there should be checks in place to prevent and prosecute fraud. It won’t be a simple solution.

That’s why the insurance-paid healthcare is a problem in general. It is broken by design, enabling enrichment of the healthcare providers (hospitals and clinics). The only real solution, I believe, is local government-run clinics and hospitals, just like public schools. Then people will have a choice to either stick with public healthcare or go private (again, just like K-12 schools) supported by local taxes.

Checks in place do not work as people get fixated on letter of the law and find ways to work around it.. simply look at the fraud, abuse and criminality within the police departments..
