# EIDBI autism *EIDBI autism services, a Minnesota-operated program line named in a May 2026 federal health care fraud takedown.* EIDBI autism is one of four [[Minnesota]] program lines named in the health care fraud takedown that the U.S. Department of Justice dated May 21, 2026. The takedown charged 15 defendants, with a stated total of more than $90 million.[^1] The project's at-issue record assigns $46.6 million of that total to EIDBI autism. That is the largest of the four line figures it lists.[^1] The charges are complaint allegations as of their source's date. The record assembled here does not show their disposition.[^1] It does not establish the program's enacting statute, its funding history, or who enacted, amended or maintained it, by party or date. No such claim is made here.[^1] ## What The takedown names EIDBI autism alongside three other program lines: [[Housing Stabilization Services]], [[Individualized Home Supports]] and child care.[^1] The project's at-issue record describes the action as "four separate fraud patterns, one federal charging document." It also states: "The state operated all four programs."[^1] The record shows that the four lines were charged in one action. It does not establish how any one of them was administered or overseen.[^1] ## When The Justice Department's case summaries date the takedown May 21, 2026.[^1] The project's at-issue record pairs the takedown with a March 2026 White House presidential action, *Establishing the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud*.[^2] ## Who The Justice Department's case summaries for the takedown list Ahmed Kadar of [[Rosemount]]. These summaries are complaint allegations.[^1] The record here does not identify which of the four program lines that entry concerns.[^1] ## How much The at-issue record gives these line figures within the takedown:[^1] - EIDBI autism: $46.6 million - Individualized Home Supports: $22 million - Housing Stabilization Services: $15.7 million - Child care: $5.025 million The Justice Department states the takedown total as more than $90 million. The four line figures in the at-issue record add up to $89.325 million. The record does not account for the difference.[^1] ## How many The takedown charged 15 defendants across the four program lines.[^1] The at-issue record places eight of those defendants on the Housing Stabilization Services line. It gives no defendant count for the EIDBI autism line.[^1] ## In the at-issue record At-issue item AI-Dakota-055 sets the takedown beside the fact that one administrator, the State, operated all four charged program lines.[^1] The item treats four program lines failing at the same time under a single administrator as a finding about program architecture. It anchors that reading to the March 2026 presidential action.[^2] That reading belongs to the project. The charging record itself consists of complaint allegations against defendants, dated May 21, 2026.[^1] The record shows the charges, the defendant count and the dollar figures. It does not establish why the programs were administered as they were.[^1][^2] ## Notes [^1]: U.S. Department of Justice, Criminal Division, Health Care Fraud Unit, *2026 Minnesota Health Care Fraud Case Summaries* (May 21, 2026).
