False Claims Act Attorney Discusses Prior Rewards and Statistics

As attorneys that represent individuals who want to seek a claim under the False Claims Act for a qui tam violation by a company, we wanted to advise that the Justice Department has disclosed Basco Manufacturing Company, of Ohio, will pay more than One Million Dollars to resolve allegations that it violated the False Claims Act by submitting false customs declarations to avoid paying duties on aluminum extrusions from China that were at the time subject to a combined antidumping and countervailing duties of more than 400 percent.  Basco engaged in a pattern of practice called transshipping.

The company said there were disagreements between it and the Department of Justice, but that it decided to settle the claims and not admit wrongdoing. Nevertheless, the govenrment alleges that Basco and others engaged in a scheem to avoid paying duties by shipping the aluminum manufactured in China through Malaysia. The claims were made known by Whistleblower James F. Valenti, who will receive a share of the recovery under the relator provisions of the False Claims Act.

Companies may not knowingly avoid paying duties. If you know of  company neglecting to pay duties owed, please contact our firm immediately.

    False Claims Act Attorney Discusses Prior Rewards and Statistics

    As attorneys that represent individuals who want to seek a claim under the False Claims Act for a qui tam violation by a company, we wanted to advise that the Justice Department has decided to join a False Claims lawsuit against the Health Management Associates, Inc. (HMA) hospital chain.  HMA is currently the nation’s third largest for profit hospital chain and the Justice Department has joined a lawsuit against it and its former CEO and President, Gary D. Newsome for engaging in a scheme to boost company profits and defraud Medicare and Medicaid by unlawfully inducing and pressuring hospital emergency room doctors to increase the rate of ER to hospital admissions over the period of least four years.

    The lawsuit in question was brought by Jacquelyn Meyer, a former administrator with MEMCARE, the nation’s leading provider of emergency room physician services and a major contractor for HMA.  The lawsuit, which was filed under seal on July 15, 2011 in the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, it was first made public on January 6, 2014.  The complaint alleges that to curry favor with HMA, EmCare acted as a “willing and equally corrupt partner” in the alleged scheme to pressure ER physicians to admit more patients.  The complaint also seeks damages from EmCare for allegedly terminating Ms. Meyer, who managed EmCare’s contracts with 20 HMA hospitals, after she refused to coerce more doctors to admit more patients.

      Mississippi False Claims Act Lawyer Reports on Novartis Settlement

      False Claims Act Attorney Discusses Prior Rewards and Statistics

      As attorneys that represent individuals who want to file a claim under the False Claims Act and assert a qui tam complaint against a business defrauding the United States Government, we wanted to provide that there has been a False Claims Act settlement for $15 million dollars against Novartis Pharmaceutical Corporation and Bioscrip, Inc. in connection with a multi-million dollar kickback scheme involving a prescription drug.

      The lawsuit that was filed alleges that as a result of a kickback scheme, Medicare and Medicaid paid tens of millions of dollars in reimbursement based on false, kickback tainted claims before Exjade shipped by Bioscrip.  Contemporaneous with the filing of an Amended Complaint, District Judge Colleen McMann approved a settlement to resolve the United States claim against Bioscrip and their limited financial resources that Bioscrip agrees to pay $11.6 million dollars to the United States Government, $3.3 million dollars to a group of states, and cooperate in the prosecution of claims against Novartis.  Manhattan United States Attorney Preet Bharara stated that “Novartis is caught having orchestrated yet another scheme whereby it used the lure of kickbacks to co-opt a healthcare providers’ independence and in this case turn pharmacy employees at Bioscrip into sales people for Exjade.  By having Bioscrip promote refills under the guise of purported counseling and education, Novartis caused patients to receive one-sided advice that did not discuss Exjade’s serious, potentially life-threatening side effects.  Further, by hiding this illegal quid pro quo from federal healthcare programs, Novartis caused the public to pay tens of millions of dollars for the kickback-tainted drugs.”

      Exjade is an iron chelation drug approved for use by patients who have iron overload resulting from blood transfusions.  Between February 2007 and May 2012, Novartis orchestrated a scheme whereby it offered kickbacks, in the form of patient referrals under the guise of rebates, to Bioscrip, a specialty pharmacy, in exchange for Bioscrip increasing its Exjade refills through biased recommendations to patients.  By orchestrating their scheme, Novartis and Bioscrip further caused pharmacies to submit tens of thousands of claims to Medicare and Medicare resulting in payments of tens of millions of dollars in reimbursements based upon these false claims.

      The allegations of fraud stated in the Complaint were first brought to the attention of Federal law enforcement by a whistleblower who filed a lawsuit under the False Claims Act.  The False Claims Act permits the government to recover up to three times the amount of damages incurred by the United States plus civil penalties ranging from $5,500 to $11,000 per violation.  Private parties who have knowledge of fraud committed against the government may file suit on behalf of the government and share in any recovery.  The United States may then intervene and file its own lawsuit for treble damages and penalties, as it did in this case.

        False Claims Act Attorney Discusses Prior Rewards and Statistics

        The settlements and judgments in 2013 included $829,912,477.00 in non-FCA cases.  There were likewise $2,870,141,363 in recoveries when the United States government intervened in a case.  Even when the US did not intervene, there was a recovery of $109,229,614.  Relators’ shares for their courage to blow the whistle on fraud totaled $387,825,711 in 2013, or an unfortunate 13% on average share to the relator.

        To date, the false cams act has recovered $38.9 billion in recoveries and awarded over $4.2 billion in relator shares.

          False Claims Act Attorney: IRS Whistleblower To Receive $20,000,000.00

          As attorneys that represent individuals under the False Claims Act, we wanted to announce that the United States Government Internal Revenue Service has issued a $20 million award to a relator that helped blow the whistle on IRS fraud by an undisclosed taxpayer.  The award was achieved under the old IRS whistleblower program via a submission to the IRS in 2006, or roughly seven years ago. Under IRS policy, no awards can be given until after the offending taxpayer has exhausted all appears and paid the taxes and fines owed.

          Under the old IRS whistleblower program the IRS could award a whist blower with no recourse, but under the new IRS whistleblower program the IRS shall reward a whistleblower at least 15% (and up to 30%) of the amount recovered when more than $2 million is at stake.

              False Claims Act Attorney: Settlement Involving St. Mary Medical Center of Philadelphia

              As attorneys that represent individuals under the False Claims Act, we wanted to announce that the United States Government has settled a case against St. Mary Medical Center in Philadelphia. In the self-disclosure by the company, the hospital admitted that it failed to properly administer the terms of certain recruitment contracts for doctors, leading to net overpayments to some recruited physicians. This included 15 physician income agreements for recruited doctors that were administered from April1, 2007 to June 2010. Unfortunately, the government did not recover the overpayments and did not admit to any criminal liability.

              If someone had blown the whistle on the Hospital and filed a claim under the False Claims Act, they would have been entitled to a share of the recovery, including up to 25% of the recovery. This is because as a relator, the Government shall pay to a relator a share of the recovery based upon the disclosure of the fraud.

                As attorneys that represent individuals under the False Claims Act, we wanted to announce that the United States Government has settled a case against CareFusion Corp. involving allegations it paid kickbacks and promoted its products for uses not approved by the FDA.  A California based corporation, CareFusion sells pharmaceutical products including under the name ChloraPrep.

                Included in the allegations resolved is that CareFusion paid $11.6 million in kickbacks to Dr. Charles Denham while he was a co-chair of the Safe Practices Committee of the National Quality Forum.  The Government alleged that those payments were used to induce Denham to recommend, promote and arrange for the purchase of ChloraPrep by health care providers.

                The settlement of $40,100,000.00 also resolves allegations that between September 2009 to August 2011 CareFusion knowingly promoted the sale of ChloraPrep when it was not approved by the FDA, some of which were not medically accepted indications.

                  As attorneys that represent individuals under the False Claims Act, we wanted to announce that the United States Government has intervened in a False Claims Act lawsuit against Genzyme Corpo, which has agreed to pay $22.3 million in a settlement in which two former sales representatives alleged that the company said a product cauled Seprafilm could be used in a type of surgery for which it was not approved. The whistleblower suit was filed under the False Claims Act in Florida.  Court documents of public record allege that the salesman encouraged doctors to use the product in a type of surgery in which it was not approved.  Those doctors then sought improper reimbursement claims with the federal government. Genzyme Corp. is owed by French drug company Sanofi.

                  While the share a relator can receive in a False Claims Act suit is between 15-30%, an attorney representing the sales representatives said the two relators hope for a 24% recovery, or about $5.2 million.

                  Medical device and drug companies cannot knowingly sell an unapproved product, and then seek reimbusement via federal health care programs such as Medicare and Medicaid.

                    False Claims Act Attorney: Settlement Involving IMC-Diagnostic in Alabama

                    As attorneys that represent individuals under the False Claims Act, we wanted to announce that the United States Government has intervened in a False Claims Act lawsuit against Infirmary Health Systems, Inc. and various related entities.  The lawsuit alleges that IMC-Diagnostic and Medical Clinic in Mobile, Alabama billed Medicare for services referred by Diagnostic Physicians Group physicians in violation of the Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute.  More specifically, the lawsuit alleges that the clinic improperly paid Diagnostic Physicians Group physicians compensation that included a percentage of the money collected from Medicare for tests and procedures the doctors referred to the clinic.  These improper payments and resulting submission of false claims to the Medicare Program violated the Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute.

                    The case was filed by a Relator who stands to receive a percentage of any recovery by the government.  Since January 2009, the Justice Department has recovered more than $14.7 Billion dollars through False Claims Act cases, with more than $10.7 billion of that amount recovered in cases involving fraud against federal healthcare programs.

                    If you have confidential information about a fraud against the government in Tennessee, Kentucky, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas or another state, please contact us as soon as possible for a free case evaluation.
