Pain management physician Dr. Robert Windsor, owner of National Pain Care, Inc. which owns pain management clinics in Georgia and Kentucky, agreed to the entry of a $20 million consent judgment to resolve allegations he violated the False Claims Act by billing federal health care programs for surgical monitoring services he did not perform and for medically unnecessary diagnostic tests.  The allegations originated in two whistleblower lawsuits filed under the qui tam provisions of the False Claims Act by Kris Frankenberg, Stephanie Herder and Bradley Davis.  They will receive a yet-to-be-determined whistleblower award from the proceeds of the government’s recovery.  Whistleblower Insider
