Arent Fox’s health care and white collar litigators have assisted clients from many different industry sectors in responding to and defending against government investigations. We counsel clients under investigation by DOJ – both Main Justice and US Attorneys’ offices – the FBI, the OIG, Fiscal Intermediaries, Recovery Audit Contractors, Medicaid Fraud Control Units, and state attorney general offices. These investigations have involved allegations of billing for medically unnecessary services, kickbacks, violations of the Stark self-referral law, wrongdoing during clinical research, and violations of the Prescription Drug Marketing Act. Many of these investigations have both a civil and criminal component, span multiple years and require the review and production of hundreds of thousands of documents. We have resolved other investigations early in the process through a cooperative effort leading to favorable settlements or, in some cases, no liability.
