Public Summary Report: The State of North Carolina Did Not Ensure That Federal Information System Security Requirements Were Met for Safeguarding Its Medicaid Claims Processing Systems and Data 

HHS oversees States' administration of various Federal programs, including Medicaid. State agencies are required to establish appropriate computer system security requirements and conduct biennial reviews of computer system security used in the administration of State plans for Medicaid and other Federal entitlement benefits. This review is one of a number of HHS OIG reviews of States' computer systems used to administer HHS-funded programs. Our objective was to determine whether the North Carolina had implemented adequate information system general controls over the North Carolina Medicaid claims processing systems in accordance with Federal requirements.
