Medicaid Integrity and Fiscal Accountability Act

This bill would change federal Medicaid law to require each state, starting January 1, 2028, to name one person as primarily responsible for certain money-related duties in its Medicaid program. That person would be in charge of making sure claims are processed and decided accurately and on time. The person would also oversee efforts to identify and prevent fraud, waste, abuse, and improper payments, and take corrective action when problems are found. The person would also be responsible for accurate financial reporting to the federal government and for controls that keep state Medicaid spending in line with federal rules.
