What it does
This bill gives Medicare $7 billion more each year. The funding runs from 2027 to 2030. The money pays investigators, prosecutors, and auditors who stop fraud. The bill also stops future Congresses from using accounting tricks to cut this money.
Who it affects
Medicare patients and taxpayers benefit when fraud is caught. Reduced waste can lower costs for people who use Medicare.
One thing to notice
The bill sets funding for four years only. After 2030, Congress must vote again to continue it.
