What this bill does
The Anti-Fraud Fund Act of 2026 would amend Medicare law to increase funding for the Health Care Fraud and Abuse Control Account, the federal fund used to detect, investigate, and prosecute health care fraud. Specifically, it would raise the statutory funding limit for that account by $7 billion for each of fiscal years 2027 through 2030, and it includes a technical provision governing how the funding limit is calculated in subsequent years so that this increase does not compound into permanently higher baseline funding beyond the specified period.
The bill primarily affects federal agencies responsible for combating health care fraud, including components of the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Justice, by giving them additional resources for anti-fraud enforcement activities under Medicare. Indirectly, it could affect Medicare beneficiaries and health care providers to the extent that increased fraud-control funding influences oversight, audits, or enforcement actions within the program. The bill does not create new fraud offenses or penalties; it addresses funding levels only.
The bill was introduced in the House on July 21, 2026, by Rep. Blake Moore along with several cosponsors, and has been referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means and the Committee on Energy and Commerce for consideration. As an introduced bill, it has not yet been voted on by either committee or the full House, and would need to pass both chambers of Congress and be signed by the President before becoming law.
