New York’s Medicaid system paid $60,000 for sex offenders to get erectile dysfunction drugs: audit
The New York state Medicaid system was found to have improperly shelled out nearly a million dollars for the treatment of erectile dysfunction over a six-year period, with more than $60,000 going toward registered sex offenders who are barred from such benefits.
The numbers came from a state audit, as reported by the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle. The audit states that between April 1, 2012, and July 1, 2018, the state improperly paid $933,594 for “drugs, procedures, and supplies to treat ED,†even though state and federal laws prohibit Medicaid payments for ED treatments like Viagra.
