This spring edition of the Semiannual Report to Congress covers OIG activities from October 2016 through March 2017. Historically, about 80 percent of OIG's resources are directed to work related to Medicare and Medicaid. This is mirrored in the organization and content of the report.
The Office of Inspector General (OIG) administers the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU or Unit) grant awards, annually recertifies the Units, and oversees the Units' performance in accordance with the requirements of the grant. As part of this oversight, OIG conducts periodic reviews of all Units and prepares public reports based on these reviews. These reviews assess Units' adherence to the 12 MFCU performance standards and compliance with applicable Federal statutes and regulations.
