The Office of the Inspector General is clear on its intent to continue rooting out fraud and abuse.
“The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Inspector General (OIG) 2016 Work Plan comes with a warning: the OIG continues to be relentless in detecting and pursuing waste, fraud, and abuse.” The work plan also says, according to the RAC Monitor, that, “During 2016 and beyond, OIG officials said the agency would continue oversight of hospice care, including oversight of certification surveys and hospice worker licensure requirements.” (RAC Monitor, 11/4, www.racmonitor.com/rac-enews/1909-oig-work-plan-fair-warning.html)
