$18 Million Settlement reached in Whistleblower lawsuit with McKesson Corporation

Settlement Amount: 
$18,000,000

A settlement has been reached in a whistleblower class action lawsuit brought against McKesson Corporation who is accused of improperly setting temperature monitors used in shipping vaccines under its contract with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

McKesson Corporation agreed to pay the government $18 million.

Filed in 2012, a complaint was filed on behalf of a whistleblower that was a former employee of McKesson.  The government complaint alleged that, from approximately April 2007 to November 2007, McKesson failed to set the monitors to the appropriate range, and as a result, knowingly submitted false claims to the CDC for shipping and handling services that did not satisfy its contractual obligations.
