Whistleblowers Bring Most Healthcare False Claims Act Cases
Large Whistleblower Awards
Healthcare fraud against Medicare and Medicaid amounts to billions of dollars every year. Whistleblowers bring most of the recovery actions when it comes to healthcare fraud against the government and the government rewards them when there is a recovery or settlement. The California and San Francisco whistleblower attorneys at Evans Law Firm, Inc. represent whistleblowers with information of false claims submitted to the government by a variety of healthcare providers including pharmaceutical companies, skilled nursing facilities, medical device manufacturers, labs, clinics, hospitals, and physician groups. If you have credible information for a false claims whistleblower case or any other whistleblower case in California, call us today at (415)441-8669 and we can help.
Healthcare false claims include overbilling, kickbacks, unnecessary services, services billed but not performed, unapproved medications, unsound medical devices, illegal referrals and more. In all, government recovery has been in the billions. Thanks primarily to whistleblowers, who are rewarded for their efforts. If the government recovers, the whistleblower stands to receive 15-30% of any recovery. The government paid out over $60 million in False Claims Act whistleblower awards last year alone.
Protect Your Chances For A Reward
We recommend you call counsel if you have information of a false claim. To be eligible for a whistleblower reward under the False Claims Act and other whistleblower programs you must report the fraud through appropriate and timely court filings or an application addressed to the appropriate office of the applicable government agency. This is where the California whistleblower attorneys at Evans Law Firm can help you. Out attorneys know the appropriate procedures for your type of allegation and know how to organize and present your credible, original information and documentation in the most effective way.
