Case Result: Chapman Law Group’s Health Care Compliance Lawyers Save Entrepreneur from Being Hit with Possible $13.8M in Damages from Feds

Professional:
Regulated Facilities

Primary issue:
A non-healthcare entrepreneur based in South Florida was working in the healthcare space. He received a civil investigative demand regarding his role in encouraging physicians to prescribe particular DME equipment, thus engaging in suspected health care fraud. We perceived the potential value of the claim was $4.6 million; if trebled, that amount could have been $13.8 million.

Benefits of Using Chapman Law Group:
The healthcare compliance attorneys at Chapman Law Group performed a due diligence investigation of the client’s equipment. We met with the U.S. Attorney on several occasions, and we were able to secure confidence that the federal attorney was not going to pursue any further civil investigation for the entrepreneur’s alleged healthcare fraud.

Result:
Our health care compliance lawyers worked to get the government to not intervene in the case.
