Brokers get a commission for selling insurance, and that’s equally true for healthcare plans that are subsidized by the government under the terms of the Affordable Care Act.

Spotting the signs of fraud, CMS recently canceled “approximately 315,000 unauthorized enrollments covering more than 760,000 individuals, which is expected to result in a return of roughly $2.2 billion in taxpayer-funded subsidies.”

They plan to keep going.........
