On August 4, 2016, Janaki Nadarajah, DPM, Georgia, entered into a $115,000 settlement agreement with the OIG. The settlement resolves allegations that Dr. Nadarajah improperly submitted claims: (1) for nail debridement and other podiatric services rendered to patients in assisted living facilities when she neither personally performed nor supervised the service; and (2) for Dermagraft skin substitute not provided in accordance with the product’s Food and Drug Administration-approved label and applicable Medicare rules.
