| IN RE: |
SB745 by Kolkhorst (Relating to fraud prevention under certain health care programs.), As Engrossed |
The fiscal implications of the bill cannot be determined due to a lack of information to provide a reasonably sound basis for estimating the impact of the bill on revenue from payment recoveries or penalties collected related to Health Care Program Fraud Prevention.
The bill would expand Medicaid Fraud Prevention to more broadly include Health Care Program Fraud Prevention. According to the Comptroller of Public Accounts the expanded scope of fraud prevention may increase payment recoveries or penalties collected, however the fiscal impact cannot be determined at this time.
According to the Health and Human Services Commission and the Office of the Attorney General, it is assumed that any costs associated with the bill could be absorbed using existing resources.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
