What is health care fraud?

Health care fraud occurs when a provider knowingly files false claims to make a profit. This includes billing incorrectly or charging for services that were never performed.

 

Fraud can cause higher premiums and out-of-pocket costs, and reduced benefits and coverage. It also hurts employers by driving up the costs of providing benefits to employees and doing business.
