  4. How to Report Medicare/Medicaid Fraud? You can report the fraud directly to the Office of the Inspector General at 1-800-HHS-TIPS or online. Your call to the authority will be kept confidential. You can also report to them anonymously. Alternatively, you can report Medicare/Medicaid fraud as a whistleblower under the False Claims Act (FCA). The FCA lets anyone with knowledge of scams against state or federally-funded programs bring a lawsuit on the behalf of the government. If you can provide detailed, insider information and your FCA claim is successful, you may be eligible for a reward of up to 30% of the total recovery obtained by the government.

  5. Work With Attorney You must work with an attorney to file an FCA lawsuit. It’s important to work with a law firm that practices consistently in this complicated area of the law. You should look for a firm with deep experience, who will take your case on contingency (i.e., who won’t ask you to pay anything upfront). A firm with a proven track record will be able to guide your case through the complicated FCA procedure to a successful resolution. You’ll have the satisfaction of doing what’s right (and saving taxpayers’ money!), and you’ll be eligible for a nice reward for your trouble. https://www.ifightforyourrights.com/
