Florida Govt. Reportedly Sent $10 Million In Medicaid Money To Charity Overseen By Ron DeSantis' Wife

Florida's First Lady Casey DeSantis' Hope Florida charity received $10 million in state settlement money, which was not publicly disclosed at the time. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' administration redirected part of a settlement to a state-affiliated charity overseen by his wife rather than returning it to state and federal coffers, a move that contradicts previous claims that the money was an independent donation from a private healthcare contractor. The Miami Herald reported on Tuesday that the information comes from a draft agreement between the Florida administration and Centene, the state's largest Medicaid contractor, over overbilling.
