• A provider with a sudden modifier-25 spike is the event in Medicare billing-pattern outlier table that forces Pursue for contracting officer's technical representative under US Federal.
• Medicare billing-pattern outlier table shows a one-file miss after a provider with a sudden modifier-25 spike, not a Public Sector Audit Investigations program failure.
• Medicare billing-pattern outlier table cannot decide the AI buy is yet after a provider with a sudden modifier-25 spike; hold is the only US Federal close an IG shop scoping a whistleblower allegation can defend.

Analysis required

• Test OCI and SAM.gov status before an IG shop scoping a whistleblower allegation commits.

• Name the evaluation right contracting officer's technical representative would forfeit by rushing.
