MACs + RACs = Audits

Both RACs and MACs audit providers to ensure that they’re paid correctly for services provided.  But once a MAC audits a service, a RAC cannot. And vice versa. So, does that mean there might be a little friendly competition between them that could result in more audits for providers?  This article written by Andrea Kraynak for HealthLeaders Media explores that notion.
