Internet reports that the U.S. Department of Justice announced that it had cracked the largest medical insurance fraud case in history, prosecuting a total of 324 defendants, involving more than $14.6 billion in false claims. The defendants include 96 doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other professional medical staff located in 50 federal districts and 12 state attorneys general offices across the United States. The operation also seized more than $245 million in cash, cryptocurrency, luxury cars and other assets. At the same time, the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) prevented more than $4 billion in fraudulent payments by suspending or revoking the billing rights of 205 providers. The "Operation Golden" case involved in the case accounted for US$10.6 billion in fraud and was related to organized crime in Russia, Estonia and Kazakhstan. Justice Minister Pamela Bondi said she would adopt a zero-tolerance attitude towards crimes that use the health insurance system for profit.
