Report Description:
CMS can prevent inappropriate payments, protect beneficiaries, and reduce time-consuming and expensive "pay and chase" activities by ensuring that providers that intend to engage in fraudulent or abusive activities are not allowed to enroll in Medicare. For CMS to identify potentially fraudulent providers, as well as those that may be associated with excluded individuals or entities, providers must disclose accurate and timely information about their owners (i.e., individuals or corporations with a 5 percent or more ownership or controlling interest; agents; or managing employees).
