The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG) is a federal government office established in 1976 to combat waste, fraud, and abuse in HHS programs and to improve program efficiency. Its primary focus is the oversight of Medicare and Medicaid, which consume substantial federal resources and affect vulnerable populations. The office also extends its oversight to other agencies within HHS, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health, and the Food and Drug Administration. It pursues a multidisciplinary, collaborative approach through a nationwide network of audits, investigations, and evaluations that produce timely findings, identify cost savings, and inform policy recommendations, as well as support criminal, civil, and administrative enforcement when warranted.

Beyond oversight activities, HHS-OIG provides guidance and educational resources aimed at helping healthcare providers and organizations comply with fraud and abuse laws and at informing the public about fraudulent schemes. The office is based in Washington, DC, and functions as a component of the federal government, staffed by a mid-sized team.
