Case Result: Behavioral Health Company Investigated for Over $15 million in Healthcare Fraud Avoids Indictment

Professional:
Behavioral Health Company

Primary issue:
The client, a multistate behavioral health company that provides valuable therapy services to a wide range of clients, contacted us after learning that its former employees were being interviewed by federal agents including the FBI and HHS. We quickly engaged in an internal investigation to determine the extent of the alleged fraud and make the necessary internal changes to prevent fraudulent conduct. We completed the investigation and made the necessary changes to the company to show substantial compliance, and we created a viable compliance program at the company to spot and correct further non-compliant activity.

Result:
The company and its owners were not charged with healthcare fraud and continues to service its patient population today. Further, it is operating in a compliant manner and has less business risk.
