Healthcare fraud solutions firm MedicFP has said that senor US officials will be working with the firm on biometric solutions.Four-time Wisconsin Governor and former Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Tommy Thompson joins Ruben J. King-Shaw Jr., former Chief Operating Officer and Deputy Administrator for CMS, and other national healthcare leaders will work with the firm to create an innovative solution to fight healthcare fraud.The team of nationwide experts, which also includes Phil Johnston, former New England Administrator for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and Matt Kennedy, who served in numerous roles in the Obama Administration, work as key advisors to MedicFP in the creation of a biometric point of care solution that will significantly reduce medical identity theft and phantom billing in healthcare.”With improper payments amounting to over $300 billion annually across the U.S. healthcare system, we knew the system would be unsustainable without effective interventions,” said King-Shaw. “We believe this new fraud prevention solution will dramatically reduce the occurrence of fraud for Medicare, Medicaid and commercial payers, and provide much needed protection to both patients and providers.”
