Business:
Pharmacy
Primary issue:
Client, a pharmacy, was reported to the Florida Department of Health (DOH) by another state’s pharmacy board, as the pharmacy had been disciplined for what could have been healthcare fraud. The DOH investigated the claim and was prepared to charge the pharmacy for being disciplined in another state.
Argument:
Upon careful review of the evidence, Chapman Law Group was able to clearly show that the healthcare fraud allegations were improper.
Result:
While sufficient probable cause exists to prove discipline in other states, the evidence was sufficiently mitigating, and our healthcare attorneys were able to obtain a case dismissal with a letter of guidance. This is still not considered disciplinary, it will not appear on the pharmacy’s records, and the whole investigation will remain confidential.
Areas of Law:
