Health care, health care, health care, home health care.
I didn't even know what home health care was.
Now, building owner Ron Nevins, he agreed to speak with us.
He says he doesn't want to lose tenants by talking publicly.
But this, to him, is an issue of right versus wrong.
One of the so-called providers, Five Star Home Health Care, overbilled Maine.
A Maine state audit determined they overbilled MaineCare by nearly $400,000.
One doctor billed the government $120 million in a single year, claiming to oversee 1,900 patients.
With almost 2,000 hospice agencies, LA County has more than 36 states combined, and 30 times more than either Florida or New York.
18% of the whole country's home health care billing is coming out of Los Angeles County.
How is that possible?
And take a look at this map, a cluster of 287 hospice providers in a two-mile radius, some in strip malls, unmarked buildings, even a wrecking yard and vacant lot.
I want to focus on those nine daycares raided by the feds.
We have learned the state sent them $67 million in the last eight years.
That's your tax dollars spent on this child care assistance program known as CCAP.
We look back at the last eight years, but I want to focus on just the last two years and state data that we obtained.
These nine providers went from collecting about $8 million in 2023 to more than 16 million in 2025.
That's more than double in just two years.
But then look at this.
The number of kids served remained relatively flat, a little fluctuation, but right about 1000 kids every single year.
