#Overpayments
Do you know of any veterans or service personnel in Central Devon being chased by the DWP or MOD to repay supposedly overpaid benefits?

If so, could you ask them to contact MP, Mel Stride, as he wants to hear from them.

Create “2‑Week ER Refunds”: require hospitals to issue refunds for overpayments (after insurance finalizes) within 14 days or add automatic interest. Faster paybacks improve middle‑class cash flow—target 80% of refunds paid in 2 weeks. Support this? #Trump #BetterAmerica #StrongM

Leinster House had to chase up a debt of almost €31,000 from a retired politician or their estate, part of more than €100,000 owed in overpayments at the end of 2025.

Former TDs and Senators were on the hook for almost €55,000 paid out in error.

Private insurers have always benefited from favorable selection relative to traditional Medicare and because of inadequate risk adjustment (driven in large part by upcoding) that leads to overpayments. MedPAC has been estimating the size of the overpayments for many years, as have outside analysts.

Social Security going back to readjudicating cases where Eric Conn represented disability claimants. As if they didn’t have enough to do. Pointless since the vast majority are on retirement benefits now and the agency waives the overpayments. Has no effect in the real world other than harassment.

If you didn't know, states will keep track of unclaimed property, so things like leftover money in bank accounts or maybe leftover money from overpayments, so you can claim that at a later date

" . . . while a January 2026 MedPAC report projected total federal overpayments to *Medicare Advantage plans could reach $76 billion in 2026 (with approximately $22 billion attributed to coding practices) and potentially $1.2 trillion over the next decade if current trends persist."

Upcoding👉 Private Medicare Advantage plans exaggerate enrollee health diagnoses often via home assessments to artificially inflate patient "risk scores". The federal government pays per-capita based on sicker projections-fabricated chronic conditions extract $40+ billion in taxpayer overpayments.

United Healthcare is being asked to pay back $47 million to the federal government after an investigation concluded that they received significant overpayments due to the way Medicare Advantage plans were billed.

I would not be surprised if this has happened.

...it got unstuck, somehow, I applied for forgiveness immediately, and after a short while, I got my "golden letter" that my balance had been forgiven. And they sent me a check for more than $2,000 in overpayments.

Carers UK said it was concerned that, so far, just 1.5% of the total projected caseload had been processed, and at current rates the reassessment would take 27 years to complete.

It is unclear whether any carers have been repaid.
