One specialty practice group stood out in 2016—the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU) of the Georgia Department of Law.
The unit comprises attorneys, investigators, nurses, auditors, analysts and support personnel. Their goals are to investigate and prosecute violations of laws concerning fraud in the administration of the Medicaid program; review complaints in health care facilities that allege abuse or neglect of patients, misappropriation or theft of a patient’s private funds; identify and seek recovery of overpayments made to health care facilities or other providers under the Georgia Medicaid Program and to pursue civil litigation in collection of such overpayment; and to cooperate with investigations and prosecutions of fraud committed by health care providers under federally funded health care programs.
