Stop Health Care Fraud!

Fraud increases the cost of health care for everyone and increases your Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program premium.

If you suspect that a provider has charged you for services you did not receive, billed you twice for the same service, or misrepresented any information, do the following:

    • Call the provider and ask for an explanation. There may be an error.
    • If the provider does not resolve the matter, call us at 1-888-636-NALC (6252) and explain the situation.
    • If we do not resolve the issue, call:


    THE HEALTH CARE FRAUD HOTLINE
    202-418-3300

    OR WRITE TO:
    The United States Office of Personnel Management
    Office of the Inspector General Fraud Hotline
    1900 E Street, NW, Room 6400
    Washington, DC 20415

You can be prosecuted for fraud and your agency may take action against you if you falsify a claim to obtain FEHB benefits or try to obtain services for someone who is not an eligible family member or who is no longer enrolled in the Plan.
