Anti-Fraud Fund Act of 2026
To amend title XVIII of the Social Security Act to increase funding for the Health Care Fraud and Abuse Control Account.
This bill, HB9811, aims to increase funding for the Health Care Fraud and Abuse Control Account, which is part of the Social Security Act, also known as Medicare.
