In Florida, we work to ensure that taxpayer dollars are spent responsibly and that public programs serve the people they are intended to serve. That means holding government accountable and rooting out fraud wherever it exists.
 
With the Medicaid integrity initiative I announced today, Florida will continue leading the way in protecting taxpayers and rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse.

Today in West Palm Beach, I announced major actions to strengthen the integrity of Florida’s Medicaid program and to crack down on fraud:

✔️ Florida Agency for Health Care Administration is partnering with SentiLink, a leading identity fraud detection company that specializes in uncovering complex schemes to defraud taxpayers. This technology will help screen providers and identify suspicious activity even before bad actors are able to exploit the Medicaid program.

✔️ AHCA has imposed enrollment moratoriums on certain provider categories that are high-risk for fraud, including durable medical equipment suppliers and adult day cares. Florida is implementing stronger screening measures and ensuring proper oversight—not using your tax dollars to pay fraudulent claims, then investigate years later.

✔️ AHCA is launching a comprehensive statewide revalidation effort for all active Florida Medicaid providers, requiring them to verify their credentials and identities.

Medicaid dollars should be spent on patient care, not fraud schemes.

🛡️ Florida leads the way in fighting Medicaid fraud!

Governor Ron DeSantis announced today that AHCA will be launching a pilot program in partnership with SentiLink to enhance fraud detection and safeguard Medicaid integrity. AHCA Secretary Shevaun Harris made clear that "our state is closed for fraud." This innovative approach will help Florida proactively prevent fraud, protect recipients, and ensure quality healthcare for those who need it most.
