White House Wants To Scale Up War On Medicare Fraud
The White House plans to ask Congress to increase funding for fighting Medicare fraud by 80 percent in the administrations budget, in hopes of curbing billions of dollars in abuses.
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, and Attorney General Eric Holder joined private sector leaders, law enforcement personnel and health care experts for a landmark National Summit on Health Care Fraud, January 28. The summit was the first national gathering on health care fraud between law enforcement and the private and public sectors, and is part of the Obama Administration’s coordinated effort to fight health care fraud.
“The Obama Administration has zero tolerance for health care fraud and abuse,” said Secretary Sebelius. “Building on the work we have accomplished through HEAT (the Health Care Fraud Prevention & Enforcement Action Team), I am pleased to announce...the President’s FY 2011 Budget ...will include historic support for anti-fraud efforts that will save billions over 10 years. He will call for increased investments in programs that have a proven record of preventing fraud, reducing payment errors and returning funds to the Trust Funds.”
The Dow Jones/NASDAQ reports, "The administration has stepped up enforcement and prevention efforts targeting Medicare claims. Rather than rely on tips, it has begun combining Medicare claims data into a single, searchable database, making it easier to pinpoint suspicious claims among the more than $1 billion spent on such claims each day."
However, USA Today reports those efforts have not made much of an impact. "Federal prosecutors charged 803 people with defrauding medical insurers in the fiscal year that ended in September, Justice Department records show. That's up about 2 percent since the government began deploying HEAT to target fraud in 2007.”
Main Justice, a news Website that covers the Justice Department, reports that Attorney General Eric Holder has reported that "more than $60 billion in public and private health-care spending was lost to fraud each year."
