As health care becomes an increasingly prevalent concern, more lawsuits are filed against health care providers. Meanwhile, laws pertaining to such lawsuits are constantly changing. Any health care provider accused of fraud must hire the best defense attorneys available or risk losing their business to spurious charges.

The federal government is vigilant in trying to catch institutions trying to bill for services not rendered, creating fraudulent cost reports, making kickbacks or self-referrals, etc. They frequently assemble thorough, well-researched health care fraud cases. You need an attorney with a proven record of success defeating federal charges.

Most Medicare payment errors are simple mistakes and are not the result of physicians, providers, or suppliers trying to take advantage of the Medicare system.
