senate 06/12/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working to establish a pilot program that uses predictive risk-scoring algorithms to help detect and prevent fraud in Medicare payments for durable medical equipment and lab tests. This approach aims to improve oversight while involving beneficiaries voluntarily and ensuring their ability to review flagged claims.

Sounds like Big Brother monitoring medical bills with no real accountability—where’s the guarantee this won’t target the sick unfairly?

Finally, a bill that uses cutting-edge tech to stop freeloaders gaming Medicare—no more taxpayer money down the drain.

Medicare fraud is real, but privacy matters more; this pilot puts the vulnerable under a microscope without enough safeguards.

Algorithms shouldn’t decide healthcare—people should. This bill risks turning patients into data points, not humans.

Less bureaucracy, more bytes—this pilot is the future of fighting government waste and abuse in healthcare.

If you’re not cheating the system, you’ve got nothing to worry about—this algorithm will find the fraudsters fast.

Voluntary enrollment is key, but if the tech’s solid, why keep it a pilot and not implement it broadly?

I like the idea of oversight, but let’s not get lost in algorithm hype without clear human checks in place.

Smart move to test technology for Medicare fraud, but pilot programs are where theory meets reality—and reality bites.
