As Congress struggles to decide on Medicaid cuts, states across the nation are revealing shocking amounts of fraud and waste taking place inside the program.

Help support IFA monthly by becoming an MMP.

 

Just the News reported the details:

Arizona became the latest state to unveil failures, as Senate Majority Leader Janae Shamp, House Majority Leader Michael Carbone, and other GOP lawmakers released a report showing that 130,000 of the 388,000 state residents who applied for Medicaid last year were not verified, suggesting up to $6 billion a year in Medicaid fraud.

The report showed only 24% of Arizonans who applied for the assistance were vetted, and of those people who did get vetted properly, 34% weren’t supposed to be accepted, but they got the Medicaid benefits anyway.

Arizona is only one example. Just the News details additional stories of fraud from Minnesota, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Texas. In each story, fraudsters billed Medicaid for unnecessary or outright fraudulent services.

In each of these stories, bad actors managed to steal millions, sometimes even tens or hundreds of millions, from Medicaid. Those millions came from our pockets and were intended to help people, not to be stolen by criminals.

These reports come as Congress is hurrying to have the Big Beautiful Bill on President Trump’s desk by July 4. Medicaid has been a sticking point in both chambers of Congress, and Democrats have tried to frame Republican-led cuts as an attack on a vital service. However, these reports show that fraud is taking place. Cuts may very well be necessary to put an end to the abuse and thievery in this program.

Let’s pray that this information reaches the right people in Washington, and let’s pray for an end to waste, fraud, and abuse in all part of our government, especially Medicaid.

How are you praying about the fraud and waste in Medicaid? Share your prayers and scriptures below.

What once was thought that a “can of worms” was about to be opened has turned out to be a “den of vipers’. Each day new evidence of more corruption, more thievery, more inequity, more “mine, mine, mine” is exposed. It is highly likely that more will be revealed — more will be revealed.

A nation walking (and sometimes looks like running) away from God is a nation that walks (runs) toward wickedness.

************
Father, God of Creation, LORD of LIGHT — Your see, hear and know everything. You are the Beginning and the End, the Alpha and Omega. Yours is the highest throne. All glory and honor belong to You, El Elyon, God Most High.

I thank You for Your faithful remnant of believers — brothers and sisters committed to stand in faith in our LORD Jesus Christ , who are praying, working and being Your hands and feet. Gift and bolster us with Your strength, boldness and wisdom to continue to advance to the reformation of this matter and all matters before this nation.

Thank You for preparing us for these battles and assuring us that we have victory in Jesus, for Your Army of Angels standing and with us in each and every battle.
Father, Thank You for Your oversight and provisions over the lives of Your people.

Father, rise up Daniels, Deborahs, Esthers, Elishas, Elijahs, Nathans, Gideons, Mighty Men and Women of God and bring us to Your victory for this Nation.

In the Mighty and Matchless Name of Jesus. Amen

“The law of the LORD is perfect, refreshing the soul.
The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy, making wise the simple.
The precepts of the LORD are right, giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the LORD are raditant, giving light to the eyes.
The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever.
The decrees of the LORD are firm, and all of them are righteous.” Psalm 19: 7-9

God Almighty who brings truth and justice – disrupt all theft, stealing, and criminal fraud wherever it occurs. Cause those who perpetuate these wicked activities to have a great fall and suffer tribulation for their fraud.
