Recovery Audit Contractor Program
The Medicare Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) mandated that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) establish the Recovery Audit Contractor (RAC) program as a three-year demonstration. The demonstration began March 2005 in California, Florida, and New York. In 2007, the program expanded to include Massachusetts, Arizona, and South Carolina before ending on March 27, 2008. The success of the demonstration resulted in the passage of legislation in the Tax Relief and Healthcare Act of 2006, Section 302, which required CMS to establish a National RAC Program by January 1, 2010.
