Red Flags Explained
▼
Each flag represents a statistical test that identified unusual billing patterns. Here's what each flag on this provider means in plain English:
New Entrant
New Entrant means this provider began billing Medicaid recently but is already receiving millions of dollars in payments. While some new providers legitimately grow fast (e.g., large group practices), this pattern is also common in fraud schemes that set up shell companies to bill aggressively before shutting down.
Instant Volume
Instant Volume means this provider billed over $1 million in their very first year of Medicaid participation. New providers typically ramp up gradually, so immediate high-volume billing can be a red flag.
These flags are statistical indicators only. Many flagged providers have legitimate explanations for their billing patterns. Learn more about our methodology.
