NUMC files notice of claim against state government, alleging $1 billion stolen – Long Island Press

Nassau University Medical Center Chairman Matthew Bruderman announced on Tuesday the filing of a notice of claims against the State of New York, alleging the hospital was defrauded of millions of dollars.

"During the last 23 years, NUMC received approximately $1.08 billion from the federal government in [Disproportionate Share Hospital progra] matching funds but did not receive the non-Federal shares that the state was required to contribute," the notice of claim said. "Those non-Federal shares total approximately $1.06 billion today"
