Enforcing Legal Practices in Health Care Industries
Whistleblower lawsuits, under the False Claims Act, are also known as qui tam law suits. These lawsuits encompass fraud committed against any government agency including health care fraud committed by hospitals and fraudulent billing of pharmaceutical products. Pharmaceutical fraud involves violations such as pharmaceutical kickbacks and use of off-label drugs or equipment. Health care fraud pertains to overbilling of services and upcoding hospital visits into more expensive services than were actually provided. The individuals that end up reporting these fraudulent billing practices are often employees or former employees of the entity billing Medicare or Medicaid.
These individuals are often referred to as whistleblowers. Although these employees are correct in reporting acts of health care fraud in their workplace, they often risk losing their employment position, title or wages due to acts of retaliation by their employer.
