Abstract: The Predictive Learning Analytics Tracking Outcome (PLATOTM) is a web-based application tool that will serve as the centerpiece of the advanced analytics initiative with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and Health Integrity, LLC, the National Benefit Integrity Medicare Integrity Contractor (NBI MEDIC). Developed by Health Integrity, LLC and licensed for one of its contracts-the NBI MEDIC-PLATOTM utilizes a cutting-edge advanced analytics fraud detection process in conjunction with a state-of-the-art web-based user interface tool to present fraud and abuse lead information visually to Medicare Part D plan sponsors. Summary data, based on National Prescription Drug Event Data and actions from all Part D plan sponsors, is shared with law enforcement, CMS, NBI MEDIC, and Part D plan sponsors to review historic actions taken against providers who are enrolled in the Medicare Part D program, which will assist in detecting and preventing fraud, waste, and abuse.
