State Medicaid Fraud Control Units — CFDA 93.775

Medicaid fraud-control obligations at $1.17 billion

USAspending.gov records $1,165,641,151.57 in obligations under CFDA 93.775. Two hundred twelve awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $5,498,307 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical investigation budget and not a cost per case. The $1,165,641,151.57 figure is an obligation sum from the assistance extract. Rounded, that stock is 1.2 billion in USAspending obligations.

The assistance-listing title is STATE MEDICAID FRAUD CONTROL UNITS. CFDA 93.775 is the identifier. Other Medicaid integrity or state-unit listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $1.17 billion. Combining those codes would invent a combined total this packet does not contain. Keep 93.775 separate on the programs index.

54 recipients and 3.9 awards each

Fifty-four recipients share 212 awards, or about 3.9 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $1,165,641,151.57 evenly would assign about $21.59 million per recipient. That density is a certified-state-unit pattern: a small organizational headcount matching the MFCU map, each carrying several assistance rows. The packet does not list the 54. Recipient count is not a census of investigators, cases, or providers audited.

Fifty-three jurisdictions in the geographic count sit next to 54 recipients — nearly one named organization per coded place. Medicaid fraud-control dollars still follow certified units, not equal shares. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award rows are not a case census

Among HHS integrity listings, 93.775 is a state-unit formula file: 212 rows against 54 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of fraud cases” and a worse proxy for convictions or recoveries. Recipients (54) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (212) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report provider audits, overpayment dollars, or investigator headcount. Citing 212 as cases or 54 as a complete census of all Medicaid program-integrity offices would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $1,165,641,151.57 stock is the obligation book only.

Obligations versus MFCU outlays

The $1,165,641,151.57 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against State Medicaid Fraud Control Units awards — are not in the packet. A state-unit file can show a large obligation stock while federal-match draws follow a later calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

What the 93.775 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a case docket, not a conviction table, and not a recovery ledger. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $1,165,641,151.57. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 212 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 53 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those 53 cells as equal shares. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid. A researcher comparing 93.775 with other Medicaid integrity or state-unit codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. State Medicaid Fraud Control Units is a 212-row, 54-organization book. Read the $1,165,641,151.57 as the USAspending obligation stock for CFDA 93.775 only.
