Records show Medicare paid thousands per person for catheters that recipients say they never ordered or even needed.

NEW YORK -- Medicare recipients across the country say a Brooklyn business has been fraudulently collecting taxpayer dollars for medical supplies in their names, and CBS2 Investigates has learned this company is connected to a multimillion dollar suspected fraud ring.Investigative reporter Tim McNicholas reviewed records showing Medicare paid thousands per person for catheters that recipients say they never ordered or even needed.

President and CEO Clif Gaus said:'ACOs are responsible for all of patients' spending over the course of a year and they receive claims data to find ways to better care for their patients and improve the overall performance of physicians, hospitals, and other providers. members began alerting us in December to suspicious amounts of billings for catheters. ACOs are a second pair of eyes and probably the first to know outside of government that this is occurring. We felt it was important to stop this activity and went to the media to raise the profile of it. We're pleased to see to see the level of attention it has received, which speaks to the importance of the issue and the work ACOs do to be good stewards of the Medicare program.
