History

National Report Long Term Acute Care Hospital Fraud Day began in 2017. Joel D. Hesch, a former Department of Justice employee, created it.

He aimed to fight against Medicare fraud and support whistleblowers. Hesch’s efforts helped recover $1.5 billion from fraudulent activities while he worked in the government​.

After leaving his government job, Hesch started his firm. His firm focuses on helping whistleblowers report fraud. He also wrote a free e-book and set up a website to guide people on how to report Medicare fraud properly.

The day raises awareness about the serious issue of fraud in long-term acute care hospitals. It encourages people to recognize and report fraudulent activities, aiming to protect patients and ensure the integrity of healthcare practices​.
