Maryland may have to refund the federal government up to $5.8 million it received as reimbursement for prescription medication through Medicaid and Medicare, after it failed to properly bill pharmaceutical companies for rebates.
A recent audit of Maryland’s Department of Health and Mental Hygiene by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of Inspector General revealed the state was not eligible to receive some of the federal reimbursement it claimed for medication administered by doctors.
As a result, Maryland is obligated to refund more than $3.5 million to the federal government. State officials and representatives from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services will also need to review an additional $2.3 million Maryland received to determine whether the state is eligible to keep the money.
