Surveillance & Utilization Review (SUR) - Audit Retrospective review of provider billing compliance Review of both Fee-for-Service & Managed Care Utilize provider peer comparison to identify outliers from peers Audit Approach Algorithms vs. provider-specific Can utilize statistically-valid, random-sampling & extrapolation Recovery of overpayments Federal share of all Medicaid recoveries must be repaid to CMS within 365 days of overpayment notification
8 Who or What is Program Integrity? (con t.) Estate Recovery Medicaid uses taxpayer money to help pay for medical services for qualified individuals When a Medicaid recipient dies, the State of Indiana is required by both federal and state law to seek recovery of the Medicaid funds that were used to pay for those medical services FSSA will seek recovery from a recipient s estate for the total amount of Medicaid paid on behalf of the recipient after they turned fifty-five (55) years of age An estate recovery debt is due upon the recipient s death 1.) when the recipient was age 55; or 2.) when the recipient was under age 55 and a resident of a long term care facility, who cannot be reasonably be expected to be discharged and returned to the individual s home. estaterecovery@fssa.in.gov Phone:
9 Indiana Medicaid Program Integrity Audit Process Why must we audit? PI SUR conducts retrospective reviews of Indiana Medicaid providers to evaluate and document patterns of healthcare provided to recipients, as well as ensure compliance with Indiana Medicaid, applicable federal & coding guidelines, and recover any overpayments. This is facilitated through our Fraud & Abuse Detection System (FADS) contractors Statewide surveillance and utilization control program. The Medicaid agency must implement a statewide surveillance and utilization control program that - (a) Safeguards against unnecessary or inappropriate use of Medicaid services and against excess payments
10 Retrospective Audit Process Steps involved in PI retrospective review process: 1. Preliminary review of provider history and investigation determine next steps 2. Request of medical records from IN Medicaid provider 3. Medical record/on-site audit 4. Draft Audit Findings (DAF) letter of preliminary audit results * 5. Administrative Reconsideration Process 6. Final Calculation of Overpayment (FCO) letter 7. Administrative Appeal 8. Repayment of Overpayment
11 Who else may audit Indiana Medicaid? Reviews can be initiated by other external entities in conjunction with IN Program Integrity, including, but not limited to: CMS Payment Error Rate Measurement (PERM) audit 3-year cycle current cycle started mid-2016 Establish state-wide error rate from sample audit Chicksaw Nation Industries (CNI) and The Lewin Group (vendors) Please direct any questions you may have to or (317)
12 Who else may audit Indiana Medicaid? (con t.) CMS (con t) Unified Program Integrity Contractor (UPIC) CMS-directed audit contractor to assist State PI efforts CMS approves audits Indiana UPIC vendor = NCI AdvanceMed Recovery Audit Contractor (RAC) Indiana contractor HMS Focused on credit-balance audits & reviews of LTC providers
13 Who else may audit Indiana Medicaid? (con t.) Department of Health & Human Services Office of Inspector General Issue-specific reviews (ie. code billed; drug dispensed; service ordered) Contact State PI to pull claims data to review Findings of issue directed to State Medicaid program to pursue recovery and develop a Corrective Action Plan (CAP), if warranted Recent examples: Indiana Made Incorrect Medicaid Payments to Providers for Full Vials of Herceptin Indiana Claimed Medicaid Reimbursement for High-Dollar Inpatient Services That Were Unallowable State PI works to validate audit results, then utilize standard State process to recover overpayments
14 Who else may audit Indiana Medicaid? (con t.) Indiana Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU) Fraud is an intentional deception or misrepresentation, made by the provider or member, which could result in an unauthorized benefit, such as an improper payment being made to an IHCP provider. The following list contains examples of fraud: Altering a member s medical records to generate fraudulent payments Billing for group visits, such as a provider billing for several members of the same family in one visit, although only one family member was seen or provided medically necessary services Billing for services or supplies that were not rendered or provided Misrepresenting services provided (for example, billing a covered procedure code and providing a non-covered service) Soliciting, offering, or receiving a kickback, bribe, or rebate Submitting claim forms that have been altered or manipulated to obtain higher reimbursement
