Fight over Minnesota Medicaid payment suspensions moves to federal court

A Minneapolis home care company, Agape Home Health Services LLC, is suing Minnesota's Department of Human Services (DHS) over suspended Medicaid payments, claiming the state failed to provide specific evidence of fraud. The case was moved to federal court by the state due to constitutional due process claims, with potential implications for other providers facing similar payment suspensions. Agape argues shared ownership with a fraud-investigated company, Healthy Living Home Health Care, does not justify the suspension.
