The BHW team has decades of collective experience in white collar criminal defense, including hundreds of health care fraud cases. Whether you are a doctor, pharmacist, owner of a medical supply company, or the accounting and billing manager of an HMO, hospital or clinic, we have the knowledge to represent you for:
Boles Holmes White has defended clients charged under the False Claims Act, the anti-kickback statute (Medicare and Medicaid Patient Protection Act) and other fraud legislation. We have represented individuals as well as those accused in a health care fraud conspiracy.
Each fraudulent billing is a separate count. The government commonly charges Mail Fraud or Wire Fraud in addition to the actual insurance fraud. These multiple indictments and tacked-on charges provide federal prosecutors with additional leverage to secure prison sentences.
We fight to avoid convictions at all costs, because of the prison term and professional license sanctions. At times we can head off indictments by demonstrating a lack of criminal intent or personal gain — unintentional billing errors in a very complex system for Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement. When the government alleges — and is truly prepared to prove — a sophisticated and systematic fraud, we are prepared to go to trial and entertain plea negotiations.
