The Trump administration has expanded its nationwide Medicaid fraud investigation to include Florida, according to federal officials.

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz appeared to confirm the move in a Tuesday post on social media platform X. The expansion represents part of a broader federal effort to examine potential fraud within state Medicaid programs across the country.

The investigation into Florida's Medicaid program comes as the administration has intensified scrutiny of healthcare fraud nationwide. Federal officials have characterized certain states as areas of particular concern in their ongoing review of Medicaid operations.

Medicaid fraud investigations typically examine billing irregularities, improper payments, and other potential violations within the federal-state healthcare program that serves low-income Americans. The program represents one of the largest federal expenditures, making oversight a priority for federal administrators.

Details about the specific scope and timeline of the Florida investigation have not been disclosed by federal officials. The state has not immediately responded to requests for comment regarding the federal probe.
