REPORT BY THE

Comptroller General


OF THE UNITED STATES


Pennsylvania Needs An


Automated System To Detect

Medicaid Fraud And Abuse


G3SV313


...a the  Genral


RELEASED


Medicaid fraud and abuse can go undetected
in Pennsylvania because the State does not
have an automated claims processing and in-
formation retrieval system. More State funds
are needed to complete the planned Medicaid
Management Information System to identify
potential fraud and abuse.

Although HEW approved Federal funds for
Pennsylvania's Medicaid Fraud Control Unit,
the State had not established required proce-
dures for investigating and prosecuting Medic-
aid fraud. The State's criminal fraud statutes
should be consistent with Federal Medicaid
criminal fraud statutes.

This report was requested by Senator Richard
S. Schweiker.
