Dr. Oz Warns Minnesota Could Face $1B in Deferred Payments, Gives Tim Walz 60 Days to Respond

Dr. Oz warned that if Minnesota doesn’t “clean up the systems,” the state could face $1 billion in deferred payments this year. He says Governor Tim Walz has 60 days to respond, and added that other states will be called out soon. He is framing it as a wake-up call: fix the systems, tighten oversight, and prove to taxpayers that money is being managed responsibly or deal with a massive backlog in deferred payments.
