Maine halted Medicaid payments to Gateway Community Services over $1.1M in alleged overpayments, citing fraud allegations, though no intentional wrongdoing was proven.
Maine has suspended MaineCare payments to Gateway Community Services, a Portland nonprofit serving immigrants, over allegations of fraud involving nearly $1.1 million in overpayments from 2021 to 2022, following a state audit.
The Department of Health and Human Services cited credible allegations, referred the case to the Attorney General, and is seeking recovery of funds, though no evidence of intentional fraud was found.
This marks the third violation notice for Gateway, which previously faced overpayments totaling about $660,000.
The company denies wrongdoing, calling allegations from a former employee unfounded and criticizing media coverage as harmful.
The case has drawn national attention amid broader federal scrutiny of Medicaid billing practices, including a Minnesota fraud probe, and prompted a House Oversight Committee request for financial records related to Gateway and its leaders.
