Florida-based Haven Hospice agreed to pay roughly $5 million to resolve allegations that Haven violated the False Claims Act by knowingly billing the government for medically unnecessary and undocumented hospice services. The allegations originated in a whistleblower lawsuit filed under the qui tam provisions of the False Claims Act by former Haven employee Dr. John Simons. Dr. Simons will receive a whistleblower award of roughly $900,000 from the proceeds of the government’s recovery. DOJ (MDFL)
