Fraud Prevention and Reporting

Fraud may cost the health care industry (both public and private payers) more than $350 billion each year* and can lead to your employees experiencing physical and mental harm as a result of schemes in which a provider performs unnecessary or dangerous procedures.

Reducing health care fraud is a collaborative effort between Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Montana (BCBSMT), our employer groups, producers, providers and members.
