It would give federal investigators and prosecutors more tools to catch and punish fraudsters, which could help reduce insurance costs for everyone by preventing dishonest claims from driving up premiums. The legislation affects insurance companies, healthcare providers, patients, and federal law enforcement agencies involved in detecting and prosecuting fraud cases.
