Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Resolutions of Audit Recommendations

摘要

The Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), is responsible for providing health care services to persons age 65 and over, those who are disabled or have permanent kidney disease, and low-income individuals. CMS carries out these responsibilities through internal activities and through grants and contracts that support a number of health-care-related programs, including Medicare, Medicaid, and the State Childrens Health Insurance Program. Our objectives were to determine whether CMS had (1) resolved audit recommendations in a timely manner during FYs 2006 and 2007 and (2) resolved all audit recommendations that were due for audit resolution by September 30, 2007.
