Every year, the nationwide Medicare program may lose billions of dollars as a result of deceitful activity committed by private citizens and companies that work with this program. This type of illegal activity affects every taxpayer and is a big drain on the Medicare program. Arvind Bob Khurana, an experienced healthcare whistleblower lawyer, helps healthcare workers in Kansas who have proof of Medicare fraud bring civil lawsuits against these parties on behalf of the government. Mr. Khurana and his legal team represent healthcare workers 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 many private citizens, businesses, and organizations that administer Medicare repayments and process claims. They must rely on these individuals and companies to remain in compliance with the regulations. Regrettably, lots of them are not in compliance, and that number may be increasing. As a result of the government's shortage of resources and holding defrauders liable, it must rely on individual health care employees in the market to come forward with info so they can hold those who defraud the program liable.

"Fraud against the Medicare program may take many forms," stated the Kansas healthcare whistleblower lawyer. "It can be adjusting healthcare records in order to earn more from Medicare, surcharging the government, supplying low-quality products or services, and many other activities. The government counts on private whistleblowers to come forward with firsthand knowledge and evidence of dishonest activities and the government rewards the whistleblowers for their important help. Through qui tam lawsuits, whistleblowers are able 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 makes it unlawful for any business entity or person to make incorrect Medicare claims or otherwise defraud the government. It additionally allows a healthcare worker with information of fraud against the Medicare program to file a whistleblower case on behalf of the government. In exchange for their information and effort, the whistleblowers may be entitled to collect incentives of between 15 to 30% of the recovery by the government. The act additionally has stipulations for whistleblower protection against any company retribution which may result from submitting a lawsuit or accepting a deal with the federal government.

When a whistleblower steps forward with relevant information regarding Medicare scams, the case is submitted to a federal district court. It is put 'under seal' while the Department of Justice investigates the lawsuit and the evidence speaks with potential witnesses and seeks advice from experts and firm workers. The federal government will then choose if it will step in. If the government does not choose to participate, the whistleblower still may continue the case on their own.

Since healthcare workers place themselves personally at peril doing this important work, the federal False Claims Act strongly incentivizes the potential whistleblowers with a substantial part of the financial recuperation. In a successful claim, the federal government can recover as much as three times its losses to fraudulent activity as well as charges for each event of fraud.

"Those health care workers in Kansas who may become aware of deceitful activity can call our office, and we would be glad to discuss how whistleblower lawsuits work and how the whistleblower is rewarded and shielded.
