Chairmen Guthrie and Joyce Announce Oversight and Investigations Hearing on the Fraud Risks of State Medicaid Programs

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Brett Guthrie (KY-02), Chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, and Congressman John Joyce, M.D. (PA-13), Chairman of the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, announced a hearing titled State Medicaid Program Integrity: Examining Fraud Risks and Oversight Deficiencies.

“Fraud puts the Medicaid program at risk, harming beneficiaries and reducing access to quality health care for the most vulnerable Americans. States have a duty to be responsible stewards of public resources, but a lack of stringent guardrails at the state level has left Medicaid programs highly susceptible to fraud,” said Chairmen Guthrie and Joyce. “The Committee is conducting meaningful oversight to address fraud and moving forward with the next phase of our oversight work to eradicate systemic fraud and fortify Medicaid program integrity nationwide.”
