Health care
fraud is a federal crime that may include fraudulent
billing, kick-backs, self-referrals, research fraud and/or
the fabrication of patient records. The government has made
the pursuit of these offenses a top priority, obtaining
substantial settlements by aggressively using the False
Claims Act and by offering financial incentives for
whistleblowers. Moreover, health care delivery is governed
by a multitude of statutes and regulations that make
compliance with the law a daunting and challenging task.
