The OIG encourages individuals who are reporting fraud or
misconduct to provide their contact information so that we may
obtain additional information if necessary. If you choose to remain
anonymous, the absence of your contact information may limit our
ability to conduct a complete investigation. In accordance with the Inspector General Act
of 1978, as amended, OIG will keep identifying source information
confidential unless such disclosure is unavoidable during the course
of the investigation. However, if you wish to provide information without
disclosing your identity you may do so utilizing any of the methods of
contacting us that are listed above.
What to Expect: Your
allegation will be reviewed by the Office of Inspector General. You
may be contacted if additional information is required. Due to
privacy concerns, you will not be contacted regarding the status of
the investigation. OIG reserves the right to make the final
determination regarding the disposition of all allegations.
What to Submit: For
your convenience, you may use the Office of
Inspector General’s Hotline Special Complaint Form

including where, when, and what occurred;
- Identifying information for all involved individuals including
name, address, telephone number, date of birth, social security
number and details of their participation; and
