Under the leadership of Attorney General Ken Paxton, the Office of the Attorney General’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU) yet again delivered exceptional results in 2025 by recovering more than $125 million for the State of Texas and securing 123 arrests and 180 indictments related to healthcare fraud. In June of 2025, Attorney General Paxton’s MFCU played a major role in the largest healthcare fraud enforcement action in American history, which resulted in criminal charges against 30 defendants connected to more than a dozen fraudulent healthcare schemes in Texas. The schemes collectively accounted for more than $177 million in fraudulent billings nationally, $1.7 million in illegal kickbacks, and the unlawful diversion of over 10 million opioid pills. Since 2020, the MFCU has recovered more than $1 billion in settlements, judgments, and restitution for Texas taxpayers.
