To fulfill this statutory requirement, the Medicaid Integrity Program (MIP) has procured Audit Medicaid Integrity Contractors (Audit MICs) to conduct provider audits throughout the country.

• Medicaid Integrity Contractors Procurement and Implementation Timeline - provides procurement status for review & audit MICs.
• Medicaid Integrity Contractors Presentation - provides information on the MICs and the national Medicaid provider audit program.
