Jonathan Feld Quoted in Law360 Story on Sixth Circuit Ruling

After whistleblowers demanded the Sixth Circuit to grant a full court rehearing in a False Claims Act case, Jonathan Feld provided insights on the matter for a feature in Law360. Presented in his role as counsel for Oaklawn Hospital, Feld agreed that a panel decision in March—one that required FCA cases to directly connect kickbacks with healthcare billing and refused to view all potentially profitable actions as possible kickbacks—was correct, and that a rehearing was not necessary. The results of this case will likely impact the future of the FCA’s enforcement and scope.
