Frequently asked questions about reporting fraud or abuse by ODHS Employees
What if I’m not sure this hotline is the right place to call?
Ask yourself the following questions:
- Does the incident involve fraud, waste or abuse of state money or equipment?
- Are Department of Human Services employees involved?
If you answer yes to both questions, please call the hotline at (503) 945-5608.
Do I need to have evidence of the fraud or waste or just suspicion?
Evidence is helpful in any investigation but not required to make a report. ODHS will utilize its resources to look into all reports.
Am I required to leave my name or phone number when I call?
No, your call can be anonymous.
If I call to report suspected fraud, waste or abuse, what information should I provide?
Specific information, including names of persons potentially involved and persons who also know about the matter; dates, times and details of the incident(s); and any documentation you or others can provide. Nonspecific reports of waste or fraud are difficult or impossible for us to investigate.
