The following is a list of 17 states and the companies they have awarded with their Medicaid RAC contract, which will go into effect Jan. 1, 2012:
• Connecticut, Maine, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, South Carolina and Tennessee have chosen HMS.
• Colorado, Ohio and Pennsylvania have chosen CGI.
• Arizona has chosen Recovery Audit Specialists.
• Indiana has chosen Thomson Reuters.
• Mississippi has chosen PRGX.
• North Dakota has chosen Cognosante.
