The "AmeriMama" program at Meadowlands Hospital Medical Center, first reported by NJ Spotlight, is part of a lucrative and controversial business called "birth tourism," the practice of soliciting pregnant women from other countries to deliver their children in the U.S. -- automatically making them American citizens -- before they return home.

But the Secaucus, N.J., hospital has taken it to a brazen new level, say immigration experts.

For fees ranging from $8,500 to $27,500, the Russian-language website for AmeriMama promised to secure citizenship papers, passports, and travel visas for the baby, according to NJ Spotlight, which reported on the program in August.

While U.S. "birthing houses" and "maternity hotels" have been targeted by the feds, an American for-profit hospital openly marketing U.S. citizenship appears to be the first of its kind, according to one government source and watchdog groups.

The AmeriMama website and its Facebook page were removed shortly after NJ Spotlight ran a series of reports last month investigating the hospital's birth-tourism program and questionable business practices.

Hospital officials did not return repeated requests for comment.

That history didn’t stop the state from approving the Certificate of Need (CN) allowing MHA to purchase the facility. The CN process is designed to determine if potential owners have the resources and experience to safely and effectively run an acute-care hospital.

Playing a complex role in a series of convoluted business relationships

Tamara Dunaev is vice-chair of the board of directors of Meadowlands Hospital. ... With her husband Vladimir, Dunaev lives in a Franklin Lakes home they bought in 2008 for $3.34 million, property records show.

It's complicated: The hospital was bought in 2010 by a for-profit group known as MHA LLC. Behind this limited liability company are 17 other LLCs and 37 individuals. The principals, with the largest ownership interests, are Richard Lipsky, Anastasia Burlyuk, Tamara Dunaev and Pavel Pogodin.

Not sure what point youre trying to convey with the "without paying" qualifier. These Russians pour millions into the coffers of the (also Russian) hospital ownership group. And that is somehow a positive?

Why cant they just work for $3 per hour, take jobs from regular Americans instead of creating jobs, and drain thousands of our tax dollars on their free medical care while paying no taxes at all???

I just wonder at what point being an american became all about using every free program the government has to offer while bitching that the government just isn't quite doing enough. After all, you what you and your 6 kids deserve moar for your $3 an hour fruit picking salary. And protip, all dem programs, the russian hospital owners along with the rest of us taxpayers are paying for it.

SECAUCUS, NJ — Secaucus' struggling, D-rated hospital, Meadowlands Hospital Medical Center, came one step closer last week to being sold to a new owner. On Nov. 21, in a 5-0 vote, New Jersey's Health Planning Board approved the sale of Meadowlands Hospital Medical Center to a Long Island developer, Yan Moshe, the Jersey Journal newspaper reported.

Meadowlands Medical Center is fraught with problems: The hospital is routinely given a "D" grade for patient safety and protocols by nonprofit group Leapfrog. The hospital is currently only operating at about 13 percent capacity, meaning that on any given day only about 26 of its 200 beds are full.

Reaping the benefits

Meadowlands Hospital and Medical Center — which NJ Spotlight wrote about in a series that won a 2017 Edward R. Murrow Award for investigative reporting — has had a troubled history, dating back to its sale to the current ownership group in 2010. Key owners have invested millions in what was a near-bankrupt facility, but have also reaped millions through payouts and transactions with other businesses they control.

Ordinarily, I would consider this to be a good a point. However, I also assume the vast majority of Americans of Russian descent view themselves as Americans and only Americans, and are not constantly boasting with pride about how Russia will crush America. On the rare occasion, Americans of Russian descent do engage in such behavior, yes, I would assume they would know about such hospitals located within a couple hundred miles of their where they live.

Bought while on the brink of bankruptcy in December 2010, Meadowlands’ owners have been at war with its largest labor union, Health Professionals and Allied Employees, for failing to pay health-benefit claims for its employees, among other grievances. The hospital has been penalized by the IRS for not turning over payroll taxes, fined by the state for withholding financial reports and cited as among the most expensive hospitals in America.

First of its kind, and that doesnt even take into account the odd ownership coincidence (4 main principals who are Russians)

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4025769&forum_id=2#36427767)

The article I linked to starts with a Chinese person just shrugging and saying they're having a baby in the US.

IOW, this goes on all the time.

Also from your article: "A booming business, birth tourism appeals to middle and upper- middle class couples in countries such as Russia and China, most of whom return home after the baby is born, though Vaughan noted this is difficult to track. The dual citizenship granted to their baby is considered an insurance policy, should the child choose to return to the U.S. to attend school -- and receive in-state tuition -- or the parents opt to apply for permanent U.S. residency."

This is what happens when you have a retarded law (birthright citizenship). That's the real problem here.

A bunch of people partner with others from the country they're from to buy a business for what should be obvious reasons.

"using undetermined funds that are shrouded through 17 LLCs"

Right, which is a concern w/r/t taxes for Russian authorities, of course. You care about Russia get their tax $$$s suddenly? I mean, I think they should, but I never thought of you as a Russian patriot.

"and then show very little interest in actually running a business but an intense interest in establishing a birth tourism program"

LMAO, you don't see how getting women to come to the US and give birth in say, a hospital, might be directly related to their business?

"heavily advertised in the target country but kept quiet here"

As opposed to Chinese and other businesses? Of course it was.

"and shut down when word gets out"

Because apparently they didn't pay taxes or wages here either.

Any other reason to care about where these four russian doctors and 17 LLCs got the money to buy a hospital they used to Trojan horse Russian women into the country?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4025769&forum_id=2#36428870)

Let's try this differently - if this were Chinese and Russian doctors or Mexicans and Russian doctors, all for the purposes of taking advantage of the US's retarded birthright citizenship law, would this make it better? If so, why?
