Kentucky allergists Bruce Wolf and Kiro John Yun agreed to pay $740,578 to resolve allegations their medical practice group of otolaryngologists Wolf and Yun, P.S.C., specializing in allergy, asthma and immunology, violated the False Claims Act by billing the government for Sublingual Immunotherapy serum preparation and overstated units of serum preparation for injection vials.
