Medicare and Medicaid Fraud

 

Mississippi Medicare and Medicaid Fraud Defense:

​

Medicare and Medicaid fraud are aggressively investigated and prosecuted by federal and state authorities, and the consequences of conviction can include fines, forfeiture of assets, loss of professional licenses, and lengthy prison sentences. Allegations often arise from billing and coding errors, anti-kickback violations, circumstances where medical necessity is in dispute, and situations where false statements or certifications were submitted during the claims process – issues that don’t always involve intentional fraud. If you or your organization are under investigation or facing charges, it’s critical to have an experienced Medicare and Medicaid fraud defense lawyer who understands how these cases are investigated and prosecuted. Defenses to criminal liability may exist.
