Part 2/8:
In December 2023, during a segment on The View, Hostin discussed the American healthcare system. In a seemingly innocuous attempt to voice concerns about healthcare efficiency, she remarked about her husband’s practices. Hostin stated, “my husband operates on someone even though they don’t have insurance and then has to sue health insurance companies to get paid for the work.” At the time, it was merely a conversation about systemic issues within the healthcare system. However, her words have since taken on a troubling connotation given that Dr. Htin is currently named among several defendants in a $450 million insurance fraud scheme — one of the most extensive RICO cases in New York history.
