Case Study
Healogics, an organization that oversees a network of over 700 hospital-based wound care centers, violated the False Claims Act by billing hospitals for unnecessary treatments. Upon noticing evidence of the fraud, an anonymous group of whistleblowers recruited a team of attorneys to help them expose the unethical behavior of the organization. One of Morgan & Morgan’s proficient attorneys was amongst this team of talented attorneys, and their combined efforts resulted in a settlement where Healogics was required to pay $22.5 million in damages. Not only was the organization held accountable for the damage they've caused, but the verdict also acts as a deterrent for other organizations to not repeat the behavior in the future. The whistleblowers that brought evidence forward had their identities protected under the full extent of the law and were also awarded a percentage of the recovered damages for their cooperation.
