For more than two decades, NAMFCU has participated in many effective cooperative efforts with federal authorities to protect federally-funded healthcare programs from health care providers or vendors whose fraudulent activities cause harm to these programs across state lines. These multistate cases (commonly referred to as “global cases”) are generally limited to Medicaid, Medicare and other federally funded healthcare programs and do not extend to programs funded solely by state government.
