Summary

Managed Care Integrity Act of 2001 - Requires health benefits plans offered by managed care entities to ensure that the actuarial value of the aggregate plan benefits is at least 85 percent of the aggregate amount of payments received from, or on behalf of, plan enrollees. Waives such requirement for a limited period if an entity's solvency is in jeopardy or compliance would cause the entity's failure to meet State solvency requirements. Includes Medicaid managed care organizations and managed care entities providing health care coverage for Federal employees and members of the armed forces within the definition of "managed care entity."

Requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to develop related investigation and compliance procedures.

Amends title XVIII (Medicare) of the Social Security Act to apply the requirements of this Act to Medicare+Choice organizations.
