Earlier this week, Express Scripts introduced their new Comprehensive Fraud, Waste and Abuse (FWA) program for their workers' compensation clients. The following is an excerpt from their press release (of which the full version can be found here) that briefly describes the program.
"The new Express Scripts program offers a suite of services that can identify fake or forged prescriptions, overprescribing, prescriber-patient collusion, and injured worker identity theft or drug-seeking behavior."
Prescription drugs now account for approximately 19% of treatment expenses for workers' compensation patients. It is because of this that Alpha Review and Express Scripts are working together to identify and eliminate fraudulent practices and charges. If you have any questions or would like some more information on how to take advantage of this new program, please contact us.
