Blogger Writes About Fake Self-Storage Pharmacies and Medicare Fraud

American Thinker writer David Hass published a blog this week about a 60 Minutes report on fraudulent medical-equipment suppliers and fake self-storage garage pharmacies. According to 60 Minutes correspondent Steve Kroft, who did his investigation in South Florida, these sham operations collect millions of dollars monthly from Medicare.
 
Hass pointed out that Medicare has three investigators for the state of Florida, and yet there may be more than 2,000 criminals in the Miami area alone who participate in Medicare fraud. The person in charge of enforcement at Medicare says the enforcement budget is too small, Hass wrote.
 
According to Hass, the fraud casts doubt on the government's ability to run a program that gives out lots of cash.
