In a shocking revelation, a Medicaid scam in Colorado has been exposed, with a home health agency bilking the state out of $24 million. The agency, Ongoing Home Health, was recruiting homeless people and enrolling them in Medicaid, then paying them $150 per week to stay in houses owned by the agency's associates. But here's the kicker: the agency was also creating a church front to launder the money, making it look like donations to the church. This is not an isolated incident, as similar scams have been uncovered in other states.

In this episode of The Mandy Connell Show, host Mandy Connell dives into the details of this Medicaid scam, discussing the agency's tactics and the potential consequences for those involved. She also talks to investigative journalist David Migoya, who broke the story, about the investigation and the impact on the community. The conversation is a must-listen for anyone interested in government accountability and the importance of investigative journalism.

The episode also touches on the Democratic governor's debate, where the candidates' plans for Colorado's economy and business environment were put under the microscope. Mandy shares her thoughts on the debate and the implications for the state's future.

I WATCHED THE DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR’S DEBATE So you didn’t have too. Oof. It was super boring. My claim that it would be a milquetoast bloodbath was spot on. Kyle and Marshall asked softball after softball, never asking about Phil Weiser being Attorney General while crime and drug overdoses skyrocketed while he sued Trump. Never asked Michael Bennet who voted for bloated budget after budget in DC what his budget would look like in Colorado. What a waste of time, but if you think Polis and the Democratic Legislature were bad, wait until one of these guys gets into office. Bennet said he wants a budget destroying public option. They both said they would sign the labor bills Polis vetoes. They kept talking about affordability and then talking about more regulation in the next breath as if they aren’t inextricably linked. We are so screwed. As much as I hate to do this, you need to watch this debate. If for no other reason than see how bad things are going to get. Longtime journalist Chris Rourke is joining me at 1 to talk about it.
