The CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) contracts with numerous individuals, businesses, and entities that manage Medicare repayments and file claims. They need to essentially trust that private citizens and companies are in compliance with the laws. Unfortunately, many are not, and that number may be growing. Because of the government's lack of resources and holding cheaters responsible, the government has to depend on individual health care employees in the industry to come forward with details so they can hold those who defraud the program responsible.

"Fraud against the Medicare program can take many forms," stated the Michigan Medicare whistleblower lawyer. "It can be manipulating patient records to earn more from Medicare, overcharging the government, providing substandard healthcare products or services, and many other things. The government counts on private whistleblowers to come forward with firsthand knowledge and evidence of this conduct and the government compensates them for their important assistance. Through qui tam claims, 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."

When a whistleblower steps forward with evidence relating to Medicare fraud, the case is submitted to a federal district court. It is put 'under seal' while the Department of Justice investigates the complaint and the proof speaks with witnesses and talks to experts and agency personnel. The federal government will then choose if it will intervene. If the government does not choose to participate, the whistleblower still might continue the case by themselves.

Since healthcare employees put themselves personally at risk doing this essential work, the federal False Claims Act strongly incentivizes them with a substantial portion of the monetary recovery. In a successful claim, the government can recover up to 3 times its losses in addition to penalties for each event of fraud.
