Update to the HHS auditing

"That’s why in addition to law enforcement actions like the ones we’ve taken today, we’ve also launched an ambitious national effort to block criminals at every step of the fraud process – from making it harder for corrupt providers to participate in Medicare or Medicaid to helping law enforcement agents analyze claims data to find suspicious patterns that could indicate fraud."

From the HHS Secretary speech. The government is planning on increasing auditing Medicare payments. Healthcare providers should expect some sort of auditing bill to be on the Hill soon.
