CMS Pub. 100-08, ch. 4, § 4.9.3
Referral to Other Law Enforcement Agencies
If the OIG/OI declines a case that the UPIC believes has merit, the UPIC shall first
implement any identified secondary administrative action, and then advise their BFL,
with a copy to the COR, to determine if referral to another law enforcement agency,
such as the FBI, DEA, Civilian Health and Medical Program of the Uniformed Services
(CHAMPUS), RRB/OIG, and/or MFCU, is appropriate. The UPIC must receive BFL
approval prior to submitting a referral to another law enforcement agency, of which the
UPIC shall document in the UCM.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
