Do You Have a Valid Whistleblower Claim?
In determining whether or not you have a pharmaceutical whistleblower case on your hands it can be helpful to consider the following textbook example of a pharmaceutical fraud case. We have been representing a sales person for a pharmaceutical company which has been marketing a drug to doctors and telling them to prescribe it ways which are not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Why does this amount to pharmaceutical fraud? Medicare and Medicaid only provide reimbursement when prescription drugs are being used in an FDA-approved way. So, by marketing this drug to doctors in a way that it is not FDA-approved for, any reimbursements given for those uses would be considered fraud.
Another common example of pharmaceutical fraud is drug companies and suppliers not providing a discount to the government as required by law. To learn more about our past results in these cases, visit our case results page.
