Representatives of Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency have been working at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, where they have gotten access to key payment and contracting systems, The Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The representatives have been on site at the agency’s offices this week, and are looking at the systems’ technology as well as the spending that flows through them, with a focus on pinpointing what they consider fraud or waste, the report added.
DOGE representatives are also examining the agency’s organizational design and how it is staffed, according to the people, WSJ said.
