The Department of Health and Human Services' Office of the Inspector General will post an opening for their Pathways internship program. The Office of Inspector General's (OIG) mission is to protect the integrity of Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) programs as well as the health and welfare of program beneficiaries.
What They Do
Since its 1976 establishment, OIG has been at the forefront of the
Nation's efforts to fight waste, fraud and abuse in Medicare, Medicaid
and more than 100 other HHS programs.
HHS OIG is the largest inspector general's office in the Federal
Government, with approximately 1,600 dedicated to combating fraud, waste
and abuse and to improving the efficiency of HHS programs. A majority
of OIG's resources goes toward the oversight of Medicare and Medicaid —
programs that represent a significant part of the Federal budget and
that affect this country's most vulnerable citizens. OIG's oversight
extends to programs under other HHS institutions, including the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention, National Institutes of Health, and
the Food and Drug Administration.
