Trump administration opens Medicaid fraud probe in Florida

The Trump administration has opened a Medicaid fraud probe in Florida as part of an expansion of a nationwide crackdown on state Medicaid programs, the Associated Press reported.

Mehmet Oz, administrator of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, appeared to confirm the move in a Tuesday post on the social media platform X, the AP said.

The AP described the action as part of broader enforcement efforts aimed at rooting out fraud in state-run Medicaid programs, according to the report.
