Each year, the United States Medicare program may lose significant funds because of deceitful activity perpetrated by private citizens and entities that deal with the Medicare program. This type of fraud bears upon each and every taxpayer and is a huge drain on the Medicare program. Arvind Bob Khurana, a prominent whistleblower lawyer, helps healthcare employees in New York who have documentation of Medicare scams bring civil claims against these parties on behalf of the government. Mr. Khurana and his legal team represent health care workers in civil whistleblower actions, ensuring their welfare and defense under the federal False Claims Act.

The CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) contracts with many private citizens, businesses, and entities that manage Medicare repayments and process claims. They must essentially trust that private citizens and entities are in compliance with the regulations. Unfortunately, numerous entities are not, and that number is growing. Due to the government's lack of resources to police and hold cheaters responsible, the government must often count on private health care employees in the industry to come forward with information so they can hold those who defraud the program accountable.

"Fraud against the Medicare program may take many forms," said the New York whistleblower lawyer. "It can be adjusting healthcare records to get paid more from Medicare, overcharging the government, supplying low-quality services or products, or any other activities. The government counts on private whistleblowers to come forward with direct knowledge and evidence of fraudulent activities and the government compensates them for their crucial support. Through qui tam lawsuits, whistleblowers have the ability to bring civil claims against those celebrations on behalf of the federal government under the False Claims Act and can be rewarded for it."

The federal False Claims Act is a federal law that renders it illegal for any business entity or person to make incorrect Medicare claims or otherwise defraud the government. It likewise makes it possible for a medical employee with information of fraudulent activity against the Medicare program to submit a whistleblower legal action on behalf of the federal government. In exchange for their information and effort, the whistleblowers may be entitled to gather rewards of in between 15% to 30% of the financial by the federal government. The act also has stipulations for whistleblower security against any company retaliation which may result from submitting a lawsuit or agreeing to work with the federal government.

When a whistleblower comes forward with information regarding Medicare fraud, the case is submitted in a federal district court. It is put 'under seal' while the Department of Justice examines the complaint and the evidence speaks with witnesses and talks to specialists and firm workers. The federal government will then decide if it will intervene. If the government does not choose to step in, the whistleblower still might continue the case by themselves.

Due to the fact that health care employees place themselves personally at jeopardy doing this essential work, the federal False Claims Act highly incentivizes them with a significant part of the monetary recovery. In a successful claim, the government can recover approximately three times its losses to fraudulent activity in addition to charges for each incident of scams.
