                                   H.R.   6753
  Strengthening   the Health  Care  Fraud  Prevention   Task  Force Act  of 2018

         As ordered reported by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce
                               on September 13, 2018


 H.R. 6753 would amend the Social Security Act to establish a public-private partnership
 to detect and prevent health-care fraud. The Secretary of Health and Human Services
 would enter into a contract with a third party to carry out the duties of the partnership,
 including data analysis and sharing. A public-private partnership, including a contract
 with a third party, already exists to deter health-care fraud. Its membership includes
 several federal agencies, numerous state entities, and private firms. In CBO's judgment,
 H.R. 6753 would codify existing agency practice and would have no budgetary effect.

 Enacting H.R. 6753 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-
 go procedures do not apply.

 CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 6753 would not increase net direct spending or on-
 budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2029.

 H.R. 6753 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
 Unfunded Mandates Reform  Act.

 The CBO  staff contact for this estimate is Lara Robillard. The estimate was reviewed by
 Leo Lex, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
