Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why GAO did this study: Medicaid-the federal-state health care financing program covering nearly 54 million low-income people at a cost of $276 billion in fiscal year 2003-is by its size and structure at risk of waste and exploitation. Because of challenges inherent in overseeing the program, administered federally by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), GAO in 2003 added Medicaid to its list of high-risk federal programs. To help administer the program, states may employ consultants in a number of roles, sometimes under contracts whereby payment is contingent upon the consultant's performance. GAO was asked to report on states' use of contingency-fee consultants. GAO examined the extent to which (1) states are using contingency-fee consultants for projects to maximize federal Medicaid reimbursements, (2) claims from contingency-fee projects in selected states are consistent with federal law and policy, and (3) states and CMS are overseeing claims from such projects. What GAO recommends: GAO recommends that CMS improve oversight of contingency-fee projects and states' reimbursement-maximizing methods. In comments, CMS said its initiatives substantially respond to the recommendations, and the states said that their projects comply with law. GAO maintains that additional actions are needed.

Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " As of November 2016, 37 states had demonstrations under section 1115 of the Social Security Act, under which the Secretary of HHS may allow costs that Medicaid would not otherwise cover for state projects that are likely to promote Medicaid objectives. By policy, demonstrations must be budget neutral; that is, the federal government should spend no more for a state's Medicaid program than it would have spent without the demonstration. CMS is responsible for monitoring spending and assessing compliance with demonstration terms and conditions for how funds can be spent and applying spending limits to maintain budget neutrality. GAO was asked to examine federal spending for demonstrations and CMS's oversight of spending. This report examines (1) federal spending over time, (2) CMS's monitoring process, and (3) CMS's application of spending limits. GAO reviewed federal expenditure data for fiscal years 2005-2015, relevant documentation for 4 states, selected based on variation among their demonstrations, and federal internal control standards, and also interviewed CMS and state Medicaid officials.
