Healthcare fraud isn’t new, but it’s becoming increasingly sophisticated, targeted, and costly. The National Health Care Anti-Fraud Association estimates financial losses at tens of billions of dollars each year. Schemes are siphoning dollars away from patient care and driving up healthcare prices at a time when living expenses continue to skyrocket; we can do more to stop this.

Congress and the administration have wisely focused on tackling fraud, waste, and abuse, but we can make even more meaningful progress through greater coordination among health insurance companies, hospital systems, law enforcement, and regulators.
