A settlement has been to resolve False Claims Act allegations against St. John Health System who is accused of paying physicians or physician groups to induce referrals for medical services.
In April 2008, St. John submitted a self-disclosure report to the Department of Health and Human Service’s Office of Inspector General that acknowledged that the physician agreements may have run afoul of federal law. The settlement resulted from the company’s disclosure.
The United States determined that St. John made payments to 23 individual physicians or physician groups to induce referrals for medical services.
