$6,882,387

A settlement has been reached in a whistleblower class action lawsuit brought against Pediatric Services of America Healthcare, Pediatric Services of America, Inc., Pediatric Healthcare, Inc., Pediatric Home Nursing Services (collectively, “PSA”), and Portfolio Logic, LLC. They are accused of failing to disclose and return overpayments that it received from federal health care programs and submitting false claims to federal health care programs.

The whistleblowers will receive a $1,121,729 share of the recovery.

The case, filed in 2011, alleged that PSA knowingly (1) failed to disclose and return overpayments that it received from federal health care programs such as Medicare and Medicaid, (2) submitted claims under the Georgia Pediatric Program for home nursing care without documenting the requisite monthly supervisory visits by a registered nurse, and (3) submitted claims to federal health care programs that overstated the length of time their staff had provided services, which resulted in PSA being overpaid.
