In a September 9, 2026, article published by Taxpayers Against Fraud, Gia Grimm examines the Department of Justice’s continued efforts to combat fraud and abuse in the nursing home industry.
Gia highlights several recent enforcement actions involving allegations of substandard care, false Medicare and Medicaid claims, medically unnecessary services, and inaccurate cost reporting. The cases demonstrate the range of conduct facing federal scrutiny and the DOJ’s willingness to pursue both civil and criminal enforcement.
Discussing a 2025 lawsuit against ProMedica Health System and HCR ManorCare, Gia notes that the case “reinforces the Department’s focus on holding nursing home and health care fraudsters accountable in the civil arena.”
The DOJ has continued these efforts into 2026, signaling that nursing homes and health care providers can expect continued scrutiny when vulnerable residents and federal health care programs are put at risk.
