Defending Against Qui Tam Actions
A qui tam action is like a traditional whistleblower claim in many ways, only it has the resources of the government behind it. This is a serious legal claim and it needs to be defended against aggressively.
At Green & Associates, we provide aggressive legal defense against qui tam actions for clients who are in the medical profession or healthcare business in Los Angeles and throughout California. Our founding attorney Tracy Green has more than 25 years of health care law experience that benefits our entire practice.
With our health care law experience as well as our knowledge of these complicated lawsuits, we are well positioned to provide strategic, aggressive defense against a qui tam claim.
A qui tam claim involves an employee "blowing the whistle" against an employer, and the government intervening in the lawsuit or not. There are state insurance qui tam cases where insurance carriers can file on their own behalf. There are multi-layered procedural complexities in these cases, which are only increased with the legal nuances regulating the health care industry.
We defend a wide range of professionals and entities in the health care industry facing qui tam litigation, including:
- Medical clinics
- Hospitals
- Nursing facilities
- Durable medical equipment (DMEs) providers
- Diagnostic laboratories
- Independent Diagnostic Facilities
