Current Alerts For This Business
On February 11, 2020, the US Department of Justice announced that Tenet Healthcare Corporation and its affiliated hospital Desert Regional Medical Center (DRMC), a general medical and surgical hospital located in Palm Springs, California, have agreed to pay $1.41 million to resolve allegations that they violated the False Claims Act by knowingly charging Medicare for implanting unnecessary cardiac monitors.
Specifically, the settlement notes that Medicare only reimburses services and treatments that are reasonable and medically necessary. This settlement resolves allegations that DRMC knowingly charged Medicare for unnecessary cardiac monitors (often called loop recorders) that DRMC cardiologists implanted in beneficiaries from 2014 to 2017.
The Justice Department noted that the claims resolved by the agreement are allegations only, and there has been no determination of liability.
