In a recent audit released Wednesday by state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli, this bombshell was initially reported by The Associated Press. Even though State and federal laws prohibit payments for sexual treatments for Medicaid recipients somehow auditors noticed that the State approved a whopping total of over $930,000 for these treatments between 2012 and 2018. DiNapoli, rightfully so, pushed for urgent changes to fight the states abuse of tax payer dollars.
DiNapoli had this to say:
There are clear rules about what conditions Medicaid will cover when it comes to erectile dysfunction drugs. And paying for sex offenders who’ve committed terrible crimes to get these drugs should never be lost in the bureaucratic administration of this program. Nearly two decades ago this office identified this problem, which led to national and state changes. While the state Department of Health immediately followed up to make corrections during the course of our audit, our auditors found that the problem persisted and needed to be fixed.
Health officials tell us that erectile dysfunction medication can also treat other conditions that tie into prostate problems but auditors state that in several cases the sex offenders who received the drugs had no relevant diagnosis.
All in all NYS tax payers have fit the bill for sexual treatments for 47 sex offenders, despite laws banning such expenses.
What do you think? How do you feel about giving the worst people America has to offer, a pill to give them a raging hard on? It just seems morally incorrect. If anything we should be giving them a pill with salt peter in it to restrict erections, not strengthen them. God help America. Opinions? Sound off below.
