Announcement
Neville Pattinson, Gemalto’s Senior Vice President of Government
Affairs, will act as a witness on behalf of the Secure ID Coalition to
the Subcommittee on Health on solutions to combat health care waste,
fraud and abuse during a hearing that will take place at 10 a.m. EST on
Wednesday, Nov. 28.
The Centers
for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) reports that the U.S.
Medicare program suffers more than $60 billion in fraud every year
through practices like phantom billing and durable medical equipment
fraud.
In his testimony, Pattinson will address the Medicare
Common Access Card Act (HR.2925) that could cut the current rate of
fraud in half by simply modernizing the Medicare ID card – addressing
fundamental identity and verification problems that have left the system
vulnerable to exploitation.
The hearing webcast, entitled “Examining Options to Combat Health Care
Waste, Fraud and Abuse,” will be available at http://energycommerce.house.gov/.

About Subcommittee on Health
The U.S. is home to a constant stream of cutting-edge medical
advancements, but these innovations can only benefit patients and spur
our economy if the FDA regulatory process keeps pace. The Health
Subcommittee developed key reforms to promote this type of medical
advancement, part of its broader efforts in the 112th Congress to
support market-based improvements to our health care system and reject
heavy-handed government control. For more information, visit http://energycommerce.house.gov/subcommittees/health.
