OLA — Post-FOF DHS Fraud Prevention Assessment (2023)

Source: Office of the Legislative Auditor, Minnesota · Document date: 2023-06-01 · Type: Audit Report

OLA assessment of DHS Medicaid fraud prevention capabilities in the wake of the Feeding Our Future prosecutions. Evaluates which recommendations from prior OLA reports (2007–2022) were implemented and which remain open.

Significance: Confirms that despite the largest Medicaid fraud prosecution in state history, most prior OLA recommendations remained unimplemented as of 2023. This report is cited in the 'OLA Warnings DHS Ignored' investigation as evidence that the 18-year pattern of non-compliance continued even after the FOF scandal.
