Requires investigations into state health program spending if payments jump by 10%
This bill would require federal investigations into state health and human services programs if their payments to providers and suppliers increase by 10% or more within a six-month period. This bill establishes a new oversight mechanism for state programs.
Currently, there is no federal rule requiring the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services to investigate state programs based on payment increases. If this bill passes, the Inspector General would be required to open an investigation. This would happen if a state program's payments to providers and suppliers jump by 10% or more in any six-month period compared to the previous six months.
