Health Insurance Fraud: An Overview

Fraud is an unfortunate but real part of the health care landscape. As health reform legislation takes shape anti-fraud provisions will be critical. This means considering steps to strengthen the reach and scope of the HIPAA insurance fraud provisions of 1996, requiring anti-fraud compliance procedures for all insurers participating in a reformed health care system, and sufficiently funding federal and state agencies to ensure that cases of fraud are quickly detected and addressed.
