“After being rejected by a few law firms due to the complexity of my case, I finally found Price Armstrong to handle my whistleblower case. My attorneys at Price Armstrong (Graham and Oscar) handled my case with diligence, and really took the time to listen to my case in detail. They maintained regular contact with me, and kept me up to date on any and all progress. They were successful in recovering more than $4 Million dollars for my case. I really enjoyed working with them both, and highly recommend them to whistleblowers seeking counsel in pursuing a qui tam case.”

Medicare Fraud FAQs
Who investigates health care fraud?
The Office of Inspector General for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services will often investigate reports of Medicare fraud together with the FBI and DOJ.
How do I detect Medicare fraud?
If you work for a healthcare provider, you may be told by your employer to bill Medicare for services not provided or to change the coding when billing. This is against the law and should be reported through a whistleblower attorney.
What kind of evidence should I have before reporting Medicare fraud?
It is important to have concrete evidence of the fraud before reporting it. While documentary evidence is not required, it is considered in many cases and can play a role in your case. Records of improper charges, emails discussing fraudulent claims, and other proof can be helpful, however, there are important factors to consider when gathering evidence. Our qui tam attorneys are experienced in evaluating the evidence of Medicare fraud you have and in navigating the rules about disclosure that ensure your rights are protected.
Do I need to file a claim or can I just report the fraud?
Simply reporting the fraud is often not enough to receive compensation for whistleblowing. You must formally file a claim in court and include evidence of the misconduct under the False Claims Act.
What happens if the government does not pursue the case?
Under the False Claims Act, the government can choose to take over the case, called “intervention,” or can decline to do so. Less than 25% of cases are intervened in by the government. However, this is often due to factors that are unrelated to the strength of the case, the amount of information brought by the whistleblower, or the nature or extent of the Medicaid fraud reported. As your attorneys, we can position your case in such a way as to ensure the best possible chance for a successful resolution.
