Bill overview
This bill modifies Nevada’s laws regarding Medicaid fraud. It strengthens the authority of the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit to obtain subpoenas, allowing them to compel testimony and document production in civil actions related to fraud. The bill also revises existing rules about qui tam lawsuits, aligning them more closely with federal law to encourage whistleblowing. Finally, it changes the penalties for failing to maintain Medicaid claim records, increasing the misdemeanor threshold to $650.
