Jim Biden used his brother’s name and his White House connections to help a rural health care provider who found jobs for three members of the Biden family, sources revealed.

An email obtained by political from a person close to Americore, a health care company accused in a $100 million Medicare fraud case, revealed that Jim used his brother’s influence as vice president to advance the company.

Jim worked as a consultant for Americore in 2017 after his brother served as vice president for eight years.

Former Americore executives also told Politico that Jim had also planned to have Joe serve on the board and suggested that his brother could promote the company during a future presidential run, according to the report.

Sources also said Jim used his relationship with his older brother to seek deals and make introductions that rewarded the company with funds for drug rehabilitation, cancer treatments and lab tests.

The shocking report is the latest to allege inappropriate behavior by the Biden family. It comes as the president faces an impeachment inquiry into the family’s businesses.

Politico went on to report that Jim offered to raise funds from investors in the Middle East to finance Americore’s expansion.

The expected funds did not arrive and caused the healthcare company to go bankrupt, leaving bills unpaid and patients untreated. The company also remains under investigation, accused of $100 million in Medicare fraud.

At least three of the president’s relatives were also Americore employees, including Jim’s wife, Sara, and son Jamie, Politico reported.

Hunter Biden was also found to have met with the company’s CEO and his personal physician, Kevin O’Connor. The two met with Jim and the hospital’s president, according to documents reviewed by Politico.

It is unclear what roles the family members played in the company, as none responded to questions related to the topic. The White House also did not respond to requests for comment, Politico said.

Jim’s attorney, Paul Fishman, said in a statement that his client “conducted ethically and honorably in all of his dealings.” Jim has not been charged with any criminal offense.

Americore imploded in 2019 and filed for bankruptcy amid a series of lawsuits and a federal investigation into fraud allegations. Americore also accused Jim Biden of failing to pay $600,000 in loans.

According to Politico, the investigation did not find that the president was directly involved in the fraud, but “he did benefit indirectly from his brother’s work with the firm.”

The outlet went on to say that on the same day Jim received a $200,000 Ameicore payment, he made a check out to his brother Joe.

In response, the White House said the check was to pay off a loan, but did not respond when asked if the president knew his brother’s income from the company or the details of the loan repayment.

“I was told Americore was going to be the salvation of rural hospitals,” one former executive told Politico.

“It was all a scam and it didn’t take long to figure it out.”

Last year, Jim paid Americore $350,000 to settle the lawsuit, although his lawyers said he played no role in the company’s demise and had received the money for consulting work, not loans, as Carol Fox alleged. , administrator of Americore.

According to a source familiar with the interview, Fox did not identify any services provided by James to Americore, and that Americore provided him with an undocumented “loan” in exchange for a promise of Middle East financing that never came.

A patient at one of the company’s hospitals, located in southern Kentucky, died of cardiac arrest in 2018 after staff was reduced, along with medical supplies, due to the alleged scheme, Politico reported.

Employees at that hospital were also found to have lost health insurance after Americore suddenly stopped paying the benefit, Politico found.

The Justice Department then found that Ellwood City Hospital in Pennsylvania, under Americore, entered into several service agreements and paid kickbacks related to “medically unnecessary lab tests” the hospital submitted, according to Politico.

The documents also revealed that Jim helped the company obtain medical approval to obtain the hospital in Pennsylvania. The email reviewed by Politico also showed that Jim fired the medical company’s chief financial officer.

Republicans leading the investigation into the Biden family’s ‘influence peddling scheme’, which is at the center of their impeachment inquiry into the president, say this personal check directly shows that Joe was aware of Biden’s dealings. his family and was included in them.
