Who We Are
At the Center for Program Integrity (CPI), our mission is to detect and combat fraud, waste and abuse of the Medicare and Medicaid programs. We do this by making sure CMS is paying the right provider the right amount for services covered under our programs. We work with providers, states, and other stakeholders to support proper enrollment and accurate billing practices. Our work focuses on protecting patients while also minimizing unnecessary burden on providers.
CPI builds systems and manages programs to enroll providers in the Medicare and Medicaid programs.
Using predictive analytics, we identify and seek to prevent fraud, waste and abuse. See an example of how data is used to understand the health care landscape with the Market Saturation and Utilization map.
CPI oversees medical reviews and audits to safeguard the Medicare and Medicaid programs from fraud, waste and abuse.
CPI offers support and venues for states to collaborate and share best fraud-fighting practices, making the Medicaid program stronger and protecting the care of states’ Medicaid populations.
Our Focus
Protecting Taxpayer Dollars
To enhance and modernize program integrity to combat fraud, waste, and abuse, we’re working to:
- Implement new program integrity approaches that work for innovative value-based payment programs
- Leverage new and emerging technology to modernize our program integrity tools
- Protect enrolled providers while taking aggressive actions to keep out those who seek to defraud the programs
- Use data to identify and address key risk drivers to mitigate emerging Medicaid eligibility program risks
- Target services and supplies at a high risk for Medicare fraud for additional review, while reducing provider burden
