Medicare Says It Is Cracking Down On Fraud.

They plan to use technology similar to what credit card companies use to screen claims for fraud. The technology upgrade will help detect abuses, like a small clinic that suddenly starts billing more for a particular outpatient procedure. Medicare has awarded a contract worth up to $77 million to Northrop Grumman and a group of companies for the new system. It will begin operating July first.

    My mother-in-law had been gone for over 6 months when we got a copy of the bill for an x-ray. The date of the x-ray was after she had passed.
    We ask when they dug her up to do this test.
    Another way of making money.

    The real fraud is the salaries and bonuses that the federal employees receive that work for social security.
