Strengthen Program Integrity Across Plans, Programs, and Delegated Entities
HMA helps Medicaid health plans assess program integrity maturity, strengthen delegated entity oversight, improve SIU operations, enhance claims and encounter data processes, and prepare for audits, RADV reviews, and evolving state and federal expectations.
Why Program Integrity Maturity Matters for Medicaid Health Plans
Plans manage program integrity across multiple programs (Medicare, Medicaid, ACA, SNPs) with different rules, different auditors, different consequences. Delegated entities add complexity. Rising audit frequency + RADV reviews + OIG investigations create growing risk.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do we make sure delegated entities are complying?
Delegation doesn’t eliminate plan responsibility. CMS expects active oversight through documented agreements, regular monitoring/auditing, performance metrics, corrective action. Many plans have weak oversight of delegated SIU work–this creates audit exposure.
