National Report Upcoding Fraud Day
August 21, 2025-August 21, 2025 -
USA, USA
National Report Upcoding Fraud Day is on August 21. An initiative by Joel Hesch, a former attorney with the Department of Justice. Hesch and a passionate advocate for whistleblowers, created the day for anyone looking to report healthcare fraud. He wanted to make it easier, so everyone could get the process right. The day generates awareness and detailed steps on how the general public can report unethical healthcare providers.
Fraudsters siphon off $65 billion each year in Medicare fraud through inflated reimbursement claims. Upcoding is one of the most rampant types of healthcare fraud that must end.
