On Tuesday, the Trump administration announced its latest deferment of healthcare funding to two Democratic-led states until they can prove certain Medicaid claims were not fraudulent.

In a press conference, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz said the administration will defer more than $867 million in federal Medicaid payments to California and $199 million to Minnesota until the states can provide additional documentation for claims considered at high-risk for fraud, like home-based services and expenditures linked to flagged providers.

"States that receive federal Medicaid funding must demonstrate that every dollar meets federal requirements. When they cannot, we will not release federal funds until they do," Kennedy said.

Oz said it's part of the administration's new "proactive approach" to tackling fraud. He said if a claim "smells like fraud, we’re not paying for it anymore."

"By stopping waste and fraud before the check clears, CMS is delivering record-high savings for taxpayers and ensuring that their hard-earned dollars reach the vulnerable Americans Medicaid is meant to serve," Oz said.
