I BY State Representative Julian B. Garrett I
Bill Will Save State $86 Million
In the 2013 legislative session, working with the De-
partment of Human Services, I guided the Medicaid
Program Integrity Initiative bill though the Iowa House.
The purpose of the bill is:to help the DHS to investigate
and recover losses incurred because of fraud and waste
in the Medicaid program. It also helps avoid paying
claims that are fraudulent or improper.
I chaired the House Subcommittee that recommended
the bill and was the manager for the bill on the House
floor. Governor Branstad has announced that the Med-
icaid program wilLsav.e$86 million over the next three
years as a result of this bill. The Governor reported that
the bill has already saved the State $41 million. This
program has turned up abuse by both providers and
beneficiaries. When I presented the bill to the members
of the House on the floor, I stated that "Many of us ran
on a platform of eliminating fraud and waste in gov-
ernment." I added, "Here is a bill that will do just that."
The House listened and the bill passed 96-1. The Senate
passed the bill 49-0 and the Governor signed it.
As always, feel free to contact me with your ideas or
concerns at 515-281-3221 or Julian.Garrett@legis.iowa.
