Free Webinar - August 19 Date: Thursday, August 19, 2021
Time: 02:00 - 03:00 PM EST
Duration: 1 Hour
In this comprehensive joint webinar with Decision Health, Polsinelli Shareholders Jennifer Evans and Angelo Spinola will cover the most common fraud and abuse claims in the home-based care industry.
With the significant rise in medical services provided in the home of the patient/client, there has been a surge of False Claims Act (FCA) enforcement actions against home-based care agencies. In addition, many agencies do not realize that the laws of several states cover provider activities in this area even when the services are not paid for by government funds.
The presenters will provide an overview of:
- The FCA and other federal and state laws that provide the basis for fraud and abuse claims
- The typical process and potential liabilities resulting from investigations and enforcement actions prosecuting home-based care agencies in this area
- The most significant elements that make up an effective internal compliance program
- The state and federal laws impacting referral arrangements with joint ventures, medical providers and different post-acute provider types and best practices around the same.
