It’s a new year and there have been several new developments on the fraud and abuse front. The Department of Justice has a new division that will be focusing specifically on fraud. Given the recent activities of the DOJ and the OIG, health care organizations are sure to be in the crosshairs of government scrutiny. Among other things, provider enrollment procedures are likely to tighten up and take longer. And the enforcement agencies and whistleblowers continue to bring False Claims Act cases based on the Stark Law, although the constitutionality of the qui tam provisions of the FCA is being challenged in the Courts. 

Join Dan Mulholland and Henry Casale for this informative update in which they will review these developments and suggest some things you can do to minimize compliance risks in the upcoming months.
