She explains healthcare fraud step-by-step, explaining the meaning of healthcare fraud, the players involved, the issues, consequences, and rules. Rebecca uses case examples to further aid in explaining the complex world of healthcare fraud. After reading this book, I realize how immense the healthcare industry is and how difficult a task it is to try and control all of the areas in which fraud can occur.
