CMS has set a special Open Door Forum conference call Wednesday, July 15, from 1-2:30 p.m. ET to address its Medicaid Integrity Program.
The discussion will include the three types of Medicaid Integrity Contractors the agency has contracted to review provider actions, audit claims, identify overpayments and carry out education. The "Review MICs" use advanced data mining techniques to identify provider targets for the "Audit MICs" to pursue, CMS said. The call will also include a review of the audit process and audit timelines.
To listen in or ask questions, dial 800/837-1935 and reference Conference ID 17763217.
On Thursday, July 16, from 3:30-5 p.m. ET, CMS will hold another Open Door call on its Quality Improvement Organization beneficiary protection program. To participate, call 800/837-1935 and reference Conference ID 19705106.
