This legislation aims to significantly increase funding for the Health Care Fraud and Abuse Control Account by amending the Social Security Act, providing a substantial, temporary financial boost to combat healthcare fraud and abuse. The bill mandates an additional $7 billion for the account for each of fiscal years 2027 through 2030, intending to strengthen the government's capacity to investigate and prosecute fraudulent activities. To ensure the temporary nature of this increase, the bill includes a provision for fiscal years 2028 through 2031. This provision specifies that the preceding year's funding limit will be deemed reduced by the $7 billion increase when calculating the current year's limit, thereby preventing a permanent escalation of the base funding.
