Trump Admin Says It Uncovered $10 Billion Obamacare Fraud Scheme

The Trump administration says it has uncovered what it describes as a massive fraud scheme within the Affordable Care Act, alleging that roughly $10 billion in taxpayer money was improperly paid out between 2021 and 2024 because of weakened enrollment safeguards under former President Joe Biden.

Advertisement Administration officials say the findings are part of a broader government-wide effort to eliminate fraud, waste and abuse across federal programs.

The report traces the alleged problems to changes made during the Biden administration that expanded enrollment opportunities while relaxing income verification and eligibility checks.
