Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-27 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " GAO has designated Medicare as a high-risk program, in part because the program's size and complexity make it vulnerable to fraud, waste, and abuse. In 2013, Medicare financed health care services for approximately 51 million individuals at a cost of about $604 billion. The deceptive nature of fraud makes its extent in the Medicare program difficult to measure in a reliable way, but it is clear that fraud contributes to Medicare's fiscal problems. More broadly, in fiscal year 2013, CMS estimated that improper payments-some of which may be fraudulent-were almost $50 billion. This statement focuses on the progress made and important steps to be taken by CMS and its program integrity contractors to reduce fraud in Medicare. This statement is based on relevant GAO products and recommendations issued from 2004 through 2014 using a variety of methodologies. Additionally, in June 2014, GAO updated information based on new regulations regarding enrollment of certain providers in Medicare by examining public documents.

Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " For about 35 years, federal agencies have made awards to small businesses for technology research and development through the SBIR program and, for the last 25 years, through the STTR program. Following a 2009 congressional hearing about fraud in the programs, the SBIR/STTR Reauthorization Act of 2011 included separate requirements for SBA and OIGs to address and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse. The act also included a provision for GAO to review what the agencies and their OIGs have done to address fraud, waste, and abuse in the programs. This report examines (1) the extent to which SBA and the participating agencies have implemented measures to prevent fraud, waste, and abuse for the SBIR and STTR programs and (2) the extent to which the agencies' OIGs have implemented the act's requirements. GAO compared documentation from SBA, the 11 participating agencies, and the agencies' OIGs to their respective requirements and interviewed SBA, agency, and OIG officials. "

Book excerpt: " Recent media reports and law enforcement actions have highlighted the problem of prescription drug fraud, waste, and abuse in the United States. Medicare, and the Part D prescription drug benefit, are susceptible to such fraud-a risk made greater by Medicare's size, scope, and complexity. GAO and others have raised questions about CMS's oversight of its activities to address fraud, waste, and abuse in Part D, as well as oversight of the contractors tasked with this work. GAO examined (1) practices for promoting prescription drug program integrity, and (2) the extent that CMS's oversight of Medicare Part D program integrity, including the program integrity contractors, reflects these practices.

GAO organized the practices based on the three categories of GAO's Fraud Prevention Framework.
