Foster Care Is Failing Children

The article,4 Are Charged With Child Welfare Fraud was published last year by the New York Times.

This is only one, very small case of children needlessly being placed in foster care, then parental rights are egregiously terminated to quicken the adoption and seal the records to hide the fraud.

Child Welfare fraud, mainly Medicaid Targeted Case Management fraud, does n only challenge the economic security of the nation, it also destroys the lives of children and the original guardians (parents).

The main reason foster care is failing children is because no one will stand up and do anything about Medicaid fraud in child welfare, but me.

The pervasive area of Child Welfare Fraud is with Medicaid, Targeted Case Management. This is what funds child welfare services.

Unfortunately, States Medicaid Fraud Control Unit, along with the States Attorney General, do nothing to stop Medicaid Fraud in Child Welfare.

There are no internal fraud controls because the Child Welfare Industry is unregulated and Kiddy Kickbacks prevail.

Social Security is a bi-polar system, with one end the aged and the other end the child. Child Protective Services has failed its purpose to protect children because it has perpetuated the pattern and practice of Medicaid Fraud. Medicaid Fraud is child abuse.

I commend the work of the Federal Investigators, U.S. Attorneys and the Court system, but they cannot do this alone. Our policymakers need to realize that the moritoria of Medicaid regulations must be suspended, now, to stop Medicaid Fraud in Child Welfare.
