The Oklahoma Health Care Authority is led by CEO Rebecca Pasternik-Ikard under the direction of the board of directors.
The board of directors is the governing body of OHCA, which directs the actions and oversees the operation of the authority.
The Federal Medicaid Act requires that certain medical services be delivered to recipients by hospitals and physicians.
Additionally, OHCA actively works with the Office of the Oklahoma Attorney General's Medicaid Fraud Unit to prosecute fraudulent providers.
The program has streamlined enrollment processes, saving an estimated $1.5 million in operating costs and reducing the rate of those uninsured.
The Oklahoma Health Care Authority has an annual budget over $5 billion, making OHCA one of the largest state agencies.
