Husband's investments entangle Feinstein

WASHINGTON - California lawmakers are questioning whether an
auditing company in which San Francisco investor Richard Blum, the husband of
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, has a major financial stake is rejecting Medicare claims
at California rehabilitation hospitals in order to reap millions of dollars in
profits at the expense of patient care.
The
company, PRG-Schultz International, has a contract with the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services, the overseer of the Medicare program, to check
payments in California for mistakes. Its only pay is a bounty of up to 30
percent on the "overcharges" it identifies.
HER NAME IS SYNONYMOUS WITH CORRUPTION AND SELF-ENRICHMENT
OFF ELECTED OFFICE.
OBAMA DONOR AND BUSH WAR PROFITEER DIANNE FEINSTEIN IS ONE
OF THE MOST CORRUPT POLITICIANS IN AMERICAN HISTORY.
