Medicaid Integrity and Fiscal Accountability Act requires states to designate a single fiscal agent for Medicaid.
The Medicaid Integrity and Fiscal Accountability Act amends title XIX of the Social Security Act to mandate that each state designate a single agent responsible for fiscal duties under the Medicaid program. This includes identifying and preventing fraud, waste, abuse, and improper payments, overseeing program integrity activities, and implementing corrective actions when deficiencies are identified. The designated agent must also ensure the accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of financial reporting.
