This afternoon, Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield highlighted(opens in a new window)” the ongoing work of Oregon’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU), pointing to a string of recent charges, convictions, settlements, and recoveries that protect Oregonians who rely on Medicaid. AG Rayfield’s remarks coincided with the National Health Care Fraud Takedown Day.

“More than one million Oregonians depend on Medicaid for healthcare, and it’s critically important that we protect that access by rooting out fraud and abuse when it happens. Our anti-fraud unit is working every day to protect vulnerable patients, safeguard tax dollars, and hold fraudsters accountable. Oregonians should be proud of our Medicaid system and the work this agency does to protect it.” – AG Rayfield
