Fraud and Abuse
Health care fraud and abuse is a national problem that affects all of us either directly or indirectly. National estimates project that billions of dollars are lost to health care fraud and abuse on an annual basis. These losses lead to increased health care costs and potential increased costs for coverage.
While LHAPA believes that most providers, members, groups, and brokers are honest, there are a small number of people who try to take advantage of LHAPA and our members by engaging in health care fraud and abuse. There are numerous unofficial drug card programs and websites. LHAPA is a legitimate administrator for drug cards and value added benefit programs and reports any imposters.
