America’s taxpayers could see billions in misspent Medicare, Medicaid, and other health and human services dollars recouped as a result of work by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office of Inspector General (OIG), according to a new report.
The Fall 2020 Semiannual Report to Congress (SAR) highlights more than $4 billion in expected investigative and audit recoveries identified during fiscal year (FY) 2020.
In addition to summarizing the full year’s achievements, the SAR provides an overview of OIG’s activities for the reporting period comprising the last half of FY 2020 (April 1 through September 30).
