ALJ Upholds OIG's Demand for Stipulated Penalties from Dr. Azizulah Kamali for Breaching Integrity Agreement

On April 3, 2025, a Departmental Appeals Board (DAB) Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) upheld OIG’s demand that Azizulah Kamali, MD and Aziz Kamali, M.D., Inc. (collectively, “Dr. Kamali”), Stockton, California, pay $22,000 in stipulated penalties for breaching an Integrity Agreement (IA) with OIG. On April 25, 2024, OIG sent Dr. Kamali a demand for $22,000 in stipulated penalties for failing to fully and timely submit all the documentation required in the first IA Annual Report. Dr. Kamali appealed the demand and requested a hearing with a DAB ALJ. The ALJ agreed with OIG that Dr. Kamali failed to comply with the IA requirements, and Dr. Kamali was ordered to pay the penalty and become compliant with all IA requirements within 20 days.
