The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has long been one of the federal government’s top assets in its fight against health care fraud. While most people think of the DEA as the agency responsible for fighting the war on drugs (and this is certainly one of its top priorities) the DEA is also heavily involved in the government’s efforts to combat waste, fraud, and abuse in the Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, and Department of Labor (DOL) health care benefit programs.
