Healthcare Compliance
Federal and state law enforcement investigations of companies in all industries continue to escalate.
By providing skilled regulatory and compliance guidance, we help clients develop programs to prevent wrongdoing. When an enforcement action occurs, we help them reach a favorable resolution.
Our compliance and special investigations team has held leadership positions with the DOJ, including as former Associate Deputy Attorney General, in U.S. Attorneys’ Offices, and various state and national professional associations.
Our experience ranges from grand jury and internal investigations to False Claims Act litigation, to Office of Inspector General civil and criminal enforcement matters. Clients in industries ranging from healthcare to automotive to manufacturing to technology call Dykema when in need of insightful, experienced counsel.
Healthcare fraud continues to be one of the DOJ’s highest priorities. We defend clients confronting charges such as allegations of improper Medicare and insurance company billing; kickback allegations; and improper marketing arrangements.
We also have deep experience handling healthcare industry-related False Claims Act litigation and qui tam actions with a strong record of successful outcomes.
False Claims Act litigation has expanded to virtually every business sector, and companies and their officers must be prepared to handle whistleblower complaints and anticipate legal issues that can follow.
We have proven experience defending companies in False Claims Act litigation led by the government or a private-party relator, as well as counseling employers in addressing whistleblower claims, conducting internal investigations, and developing effective compliance policies.
Multiplying rapidly for criminal investigations, civil and contract fraud cases, and whistleblower complaints, the economic and reputational stakes higher than ever.
We are fully versed in the issues associated with internal investigations and how to conduct these investigations. We also advise clients on business ethics and risk management needs, to put into place effective compliance programs that can reduce the risk of wrongdoing and the adverse consequences of a civil or criminal inquiry or enforcement action.
