Review Of Medicaid Payments For Rehabilitation Services To The Abraxas Foundation Of West Virginia For The Period October 1, 1993 Through March 31, 1994.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The objective of our review was to determine whether Medicaid payments made to Abraxas for rehabilitation services between October 1, 1993 and March 31, 1994 were reasonable and allowable according to the Medicaid State Plan. We found that many of the services reviewed do not meet the State Plan definition for rehabilitation services. These services, which totaled $135,654, included general observations and monitoring, not medical or remedial rehabilitation services.
