Fraud and Abuse
Community Choice Michigan has a program designed to handle cases of managed care fraud.
Fraud can be committed by providers or members. Examples of provider fraud include doctors or other health care providers who:
- Prescribe drugs, equipment or services that you feel are unnecessary
- Schedule more frequent return visits than you feel are necessary
- Bill for services not provided to you
The following examples are considered member fraud. Community Choice Michigan monitors these member activities:
- Members who share their Community Choice Michigan ID card with another person
- Members who sell prescribed drugs or other medical equipment paid for by Community Choice Michigan to others
- Members who forge their doctor’s signature to receive gift certificates
