Anti-Fraud Initiative Database Unveiled

Information on how states are combating Medicare fraud and abuse is now just a mouse click away. A new database, created by the Pew Charitable Trusts, contains data from 70 reports published by CMS on states' anti-fraud initiatives.

The information is broken down into four categories:

  • Screening of potential and existing Medicaid beneficiaries
  • Prepayment claim reviews 
  • "Pay and chase" programs designed to recover improperly paid funds
  • Practices that involve more than one of the three above categories
