What’s in it

This bill relates to the limitations on activities related to paid claims under the Medicaid program. The bill provides that notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, any post-payment review of Medicaid provider claims paid under either Medicaid fee-for-service or managed care administration that do not involve fraud or misrepresentation shall be limited to a review of only those claims for which no more than months have elapsed since the date of payment of the claim. Additionally, any provider overpayment identified for which months or more have elapsed since the date of payment of the claim shall not be subject to repayment or to offset against future reimbursement of claims by the provider.

Read the full explanation

Any improper payment identified through a review may be resubmitted by the provider as a claims adjustment. The bill takes effect upon enactment.
