Healthcare Fraud Law Suits (Qui Tam Claims & Medicare Fraud Claims)

Law enforcement authorities estimate that health-care fraud costs taxpayers between $60 billion and $100 billion each year. Through Qui Tam Claims and Health Care Fraud Lawsuits, billions of dollars have been recovered from individuals and organizations that have committed health care fraud and stolen large amounts of money from United States Tax Payers.

There are lawful ways that whistleblowers and American Heroes can act as a "Relator" and file Qui Tam Claims and Whistleblower Lawsuits to recover millions or billions of dollars that have been stolen from the United States.

In a recent Qui Tam settlement False Claims Act qui tam or whistleblower lawsuits were settled resulting in a $1.7 Billion recover. Of this settlement, whistleblowers will receive a combined share of approximately $150 million.
