Complete Audit Report

The following finding was included in our audit report on the Office of the Attorney General, Medicaid Fraud Control Unit.

The State Auditor is required by state law to conduct an audit of the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU) " . . . to quantitatively determine the amount of money invested in the unit and the amount of money actually recovered by such office." In 2008, the MFCU collected over $13 million.

The report does not separately indicate the total amount of overpayments identified as a result of completed investigations. The overpayments reported include applicable damages ordered by the court. This condition was also noted in the prior report.
