San Francisco - The California Rural Indian Health Board Inc. ("CRIHB"), a nontribal entity and grantee of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS"), Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration ("SAMHSA"), agreed to pay the United States $532,000, and to be terminated from an existing SAMHSA grant, thereby relinquishing funds valued at over $4.6 million, announced United States Attorney Melinda Haag.

How Crucible Prevents This
Crucible's billing compliance controls enforce documentation-to-claims reconciliation, requiring clinical attestation before claims submission and flagging billing patterns that deviate from documented care delivery.
