Bill overview
This bill focuses on improving the oversight and auditing processes within the Oklahoma Health Care Authority (OHCA). It prohibits the use of certain statistical methodologies, particularly extrapolation, when auditing Medicaid home and community-based services claims, and nullifies previous audit results based on those methods. The bill also mandates collaboration between the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services and the Department of Human Services, establishes training requirements, and clarifies reporting obligations for fraud. Furthermore, it amends existing law to strengthen the Department of Human Services’ role in providing community-based services for individuals with developmental disabilities.
