The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office of the Inspector General (OIG), has issued its fiscal year 2014 Work Plan, which includes OIG’s ongoing and forthcoming activities related to suppliers of durable medical equipment, prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (DMEPOS). It provides healthcare industry stakeholders with a summary of new and ongoing reviews and activities that OIG plans to pursue with respect to HHS programs and operations during the current fiscal year and beyond. The OIG Work Plan priorities often result in additional enforcement action, significant change in Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) policy, or both.
