The Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services (CMS), is announcing
the launch of the ‘‘CMS Provider
Screening Innovator Challenge.’’ This
Challenge is sponsored by CMS and is
presented as part of the Partnership for
Program Integrity Innovation program,
and will be administered by the
National Aeronautic and Space
Administration’s (NASA) Federal Center
of Excellence for Collaborative
Innovation. This Challenge addresses
our goals of improving our abilities to
streamline operations, screen providers,
and reduce fraud and abuse.
Specifically, the challenge is an
innovation competition to develop a
multi-State, multi-program provider
screening software application which
would be capable of risk scoring,
credentialing validation, identity
authentication, and sanction checks,
while lowering burden on providers and
reducing administrative and
infrastructure expenses for States and
Federal programs. More information
pertaining to the Medicaid and CHIP
programs can be found at
www.medicaid.gov.
