Centene Corp. criticized the Ohio attorney general for lacking a basic understanding of the state s $26 billion Medicaid program, claiming he wasted taxpayer time and money accusing Centene of overcharging the state by millions in drug costs. There are no secrets here; there is nothing that needs to be hidden or, in fact, that even justifies the filing of this lawsuit, Centene wrote in a federal court filing in Ohio on Friday.
In March, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost sued Centene, alleging its Buckeye Health Plan subsidiary used a web of subcontractors to obscure drug costs and fleece the state s Medicaid program out of millions of dollars in pharmacy benefits. The suit was filed in the Franklin County Court of Common Pleas and is sealed.

The lawsuit alleges that Centene subsidiary Buckeye Health Plan utilized a web of subcontractors for the provision of pharmacy benefits in order to misrepresent pharmacy costs, resulting in millions of dollars of overpayments by ODM.
“Corporate greed has led Centene and its wholly owned subsidiaries to fleece taxpayers out of millions. This conspiracy to obtain Medicaid payments through deceptive means stops now,” Attorney General Yost said. “My office has worked tirelessly to untangle this complex scheme, and we are confident that Centene and its affiliates have materially breached their obligations both to the Department of Medicaid and the state of Ohio.”
