Wisconsin Home Health Agency and Owner Agree to Voluntary Exclusion

On October 28, 2015, in connection with the resolution of False Claims Act liability, a Wisconsin Home Health Agency and its owner agreed to be excluded from participating in Federal health care programs for a period of fifteen years under 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7(b)(7). OIG alleged that the agency and its owner submitted claims to Wisconsin Medicaid for personal care worker services that were not provided, were not provided pursuant to appropriate supervision by the agency, were not medically necessary, or were referred or ordered in violation of the Anti-Kickback Statute. Senior Counsels Geeta Taylor and Tamara Forys represented OIG.
