Optum Serve: Protecting taxpayer dollars

Eliminate fraud, waste and abuse in healthcare spending.

Success of public-private partnerships

The federal government spends more than $1 trillion annually on healthcare through programs like Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans Affairs. Protecting taxpayer dollars is a challenge — but one that Optum Serve is dedicated to addressing.

For more than two decades, we've worked with Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and other federal agencies to establish and maintain program integrity across healthcare initiatives. Three case studies detail how we leverage our industry expertise and IT capabilities to mitigate risk and stop fraud, waste and abuse.
