Each and every year, the United States Medicare program may lose billions of dollars because of the deceitful activity committed by private citizens and entities that work with this program. This type of illegal activity has an effect on each and every taxpayer and is a huge drain on the Medicare program. Arvind Bob Khurana, a prominent whistleblower attorney, helps healthcare employees in Arkansas who have evidence of Medicare fraud bring civil suits against these entities on behalf of the government. Mr. Khurana and his legal team represent health care employees in civil whistleblower lawsuits, ensuring their safety and security under the federal False Claims Act.
The CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) works with numerous private citizens, providers, and organizations that manage Medicare compensations and process claims. The CMS must ultimately trust that individuals and companies are in compliance with the rules. Regrettably, many entities are not in compliance, and that number may be growing. As a result of the government's lack of resources to police and hold cheaters responsible, it has to count on individual healthcare employees in the market to come forward with information so they can hold those who defraud the program responsible.
"Fraud against the Medicare program may take many forms," said Mr. Khurana. "The Fraud can be manipulating healthcare records in order to get paid more from Medicare, overcharging the government, providing substandard healthcare services or products, and many other activities. The government relies on private whistleblowers to come forward with direct knowledge and evidence of dishonest activities and the government compensates the whistleblowers for their critical help. Through qui tam claims, whistleblowers have the ability to bring civil claims against those parties on behalf of the government under the False Claims Act and can be rewarded for it."
The federal False Claims Act is a federal statute that renders it unlawful for any entity to make incorrect Medicare claims or otherwise defraud the federal government. It additionally makes it possible for a healthcare personnel with knowledge of fraud against the Medicare program to file a whistleblower lawsuit on behalf of the government. In exchange for their details and effort, the whistleblowers may be entitled to gather rewards of as much as 15 and 30 percent of the funds recovered by the federal government. The act likewise has arrangements for whistleblower protection against any company retribution which may result from submitting a claim or agreeing to a deal with the government.
When a whistleblower comes forward with information regarding Medicare fraud, the case is filed in federal district court. It is put 'under seal' while the Department of Justice examines the complaint and the evidence, interviews potential witnesses, and speaks with specialists and agency personnel. The federal government will then make a decision if it will step in. If it does not choose to step in, the whistleblower still might continue the case on their own.
Since healthcare workers may put themselves personally at risk doing this important work, the federal False Claims Act strongly incentivizes them with a substantial part of the financial recuperation. In an effective claim, the federal government can recuperate approximately 3 times its losses as well as charges for each event of fraud.

"My purpose as a Medicare whistleblower lawyer is to represent these brave individuals, to help keep them safe and anonymous, and to work hard that they are compensated for their work," continued Mr. Khurana. "Those health care workers in Arkansas who may become aware of deceptive activity can call our offices, and we would be glad to discuss how whistleblower lawsuits work and how the whistleblower is rewarded and protected. With their courageous assistance, we can help hold Medicare fraud in control and hold those who perpetrate such fraud liable for their activities."
