fraud risk indicator tool

The Office of Inspector General (OIG) has added a new entity, Ridgeview Rehab & Nursing Center, LLC (Ridgeview), to its list of individuals and entities designated as “high risk – heightened scrutiny.” The “high risk – heightened scrutiny” list is part of the OIG’s fraud risk indicator tool, which the OIG made public last year. The fraud risk indicator tool places parties that have settled False Claims Act (FCA) allegations with the government into one of five categories on a risk spectrum.
