This Livewire page argues that federal benefit-integrity enforcement should also examine Connecticut Medicaid.

2
00:00:05,901 --> 00:00:09,835
Treat every number and conclusion as a claim to verify, not an audit or finding.

3
00:00:09,835 --> 00:00:12,355
Build seven records: the dated audit source; exact

4
00:00:12,355 --> 00:00:15,551
eligibility category; payment amount and period; beneficiary

5
00:00:15,551 --> 00:00:18,502
or provider status; correction or recovery action; waiver

6
00:00:18,502 --> 00:00:21,514
waitlist source and method; and the agency’s final response.

7
00:00:21,514 --> 00:00:24,157
A payment to an ineligible or deceased person may be

8
00:00:24,157 --> 00:00:26,801
improper, but it does not automatically prove fraud,

9
00:00:26,801 --> 00:00:29,320
knowledge, diversion, or a link to an HCBS waitlist.

10
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,148
A long wait can raise access and integration questions;

11
00:00:32,148 --> 00:00:34,914
it does not by itself establish unlawful segregation.

12
00:00:34,914 --> 00:00:38,479
Match each allegation to current CMS, OIG, state-audit, and case records.
