Program integrity requirements for high-risk provider types under medical assistance established, and report required.

HF 3546 strengthens oversight of high-risk medical assistance providers in Minnesota by clarifying who qualifies as a "controlling individual" (e.g., owners, officers, compliance officers) and requiring license holders to designate qualified staff for program management and oversight. The bill amends multiple statutes to mandate that designated managers maintain compliance with licensing requirements and ensure proper implementation of oversight duties. It also requires a report on these program integrity measures. The changes directly affect medical assistance providers, particularly those deemed high-risk, to improve accountability and reduce fraud or errors in service delivery.
