Why This Matters

The WALZ Act directs the Inspector General to investigate any significant increases in payments made to health service providers. This helps ensure that the money spent on health programs is used properly and not mismanaged.

If you are concerned about how health program funds are spent, this bill aims to increase accountability for payment increases.
