Government Cracking Down On Pharmacies And Labs
In recent months, there has been a major increase in law enforcement activity and investigations into pharmacies and medical labs in the New York and New Jersey area by the FBI, the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) and insurance companies. Many lab owners have been indicted on federal charges.
We help these businesses in three ways:
- We proactively advise pharmacy and medical lab businesses to make sure that their operations are compliant with federal and state regulations.
- We represent businesses that have been targeted by investigations by the FBI, State Medicaid Fraud Units, Zone Program Integrity Contractors and Commercial Carriers.
- We help businesses achieve compliance so that they can move on in a positive direction and leave the problems in the past.
Our health care fraud attorneys have been interacting with regulatory agencies for many years, including the FBI, the OIG, the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit and the Zone Program Integrity Contractors, and we thoroughly understand the processes and decision makers of each organization.
