HHS Office of Inspector General
Audited ACF's $301,747 sole-source contract to Deloitte with potentially unallowable costs.

As of February 2026, no comprehensive GAO report on FY2025 improper payments has emerged, but recent HHS-OIG audits reveal continued waste, including $45.6 million in improper Maine Medicaid payments for autism services reported January 21, 2026. Late 2025 OIG findings on NIH oversight gaps and CMS $11.2 billion at-risk contracts reaffirm systemic vulnerabilities in grant and contract management. While some programs show improvement, the pattern of poor oversight across federal agencies persists, validating prior concerns.
Comprehensive searches of web sources, official OIG websites, and X platforms reveal no new Inspector General reports or audits since mid-February 2026 exposing billions in no-bid, sole-source, or noncompetitive contract waste. Specific audits like DoD OIG's DODIG-2026-043 on Army Ukraine contracts (completed January 14, 2026) and Project D2026-D000AU-0033.000 on sole-source cloud awards remain without public findings or updates [web:3][web:4][web:5][web:23]. Prior evidence claims appear to reference historical or unverified incidents, with ongoing DOGE terminations and SBA actions but no fresh IG confirmations of massive waste.
