BlockBeats News, July 3rd, according to Forbes, the U.S. Department of Justice announced the bust of the largest healthcare fraud scheme in history, with a total of 324 defendants charged, involving over $14.6 billion in false claims. These defendants include 96 healthcare professionals such as doctors, nurses, and pharmacists, spread across all 50 federal districts and 12 state attorney general's offices in the United States.
This operation also seized over $245 million in cash, cryptocurrency, luxury vehicles, and other assets.
