明尼苏达州立法者引入了MAP法,用新的工作人员和权力推动医疗援助计划欺诈行为的打击。 Minnesota lawmakers introduce MAP Act to boost Medicaid fraud fight with new staff and powers.

明尼苏达州总检察长基思·埃利森(Keith Ellison)和DFL众议院立法者于2026年2月25日推出了《医疗援助保护法》(MAP), Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and House DFL lawmakers introduced the "Medical Assistance Protection" (MAP) Act on February 25, 2026, to strengthen the state’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit by adding 18 staff members and granting subpoena power. 该法案旨在使欺诈定义现代化,使惩罚平等,并解决联邦检察官辞职时将欺诈案件移交案件增加两倍的问题。 The bill aims to modernize fraud definitions, equalize penalties, and address a tripling of fraud referrals amid federal prosecutor resignations. 尽管此前有两党支持,但《MAP法》和独立监察主任办公室的提案仍然因宪法问题而停滞不前。 Despite prior bipartisan support, the MAP Act and a separate Office of Inspector General proposal remain stalled over constitutional concerns. 预计蒂姆·瓦尔兹州长不久将发布自己的反欺诈计划。 Governor Tim Walz is expected to release his own anti-fraud plan soon.
