ALBANY — New York State plans to appeal and could sue the federal government over an order from the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid requiring the state to repay $1.26 billion in Medicaid overpayments, a new quarterly state budget report said.
The order, delivered in a letter to state health officials on July 25, said the state owed repayment on Medicaid funding dating back to fiscal year 2010-11. Federal officials also warned New York they could seek more money from the two subsequent budget years, pending the results of a federal audit of state Medicaid spending.
