In a recent article, the New York Times reports that the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG) will be releasing a report that calls into question the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services claims that it reduced the improper payment rate for durable medical equipment. The article even suggests that the OIG report may depict such claims as misleading. According to the article, the OIG's report is still in draft form but may be released to the public in the next week.
