The Office of Inspector General's Approach to CMP Cases
|
||||||||||||||||
March 28, 2006 | 12 Central | 1.2 CEUs The Office of Inspector General is using its CMP authority, or Civil Monetary Penalty authority, with greater frequency. An understanding of these CMP authorities is a crucial component of an organization's fraud detection and prevention activities as it enables an organization to see what CMP consequences occur when violating laws and regulations governing the Medicare Program. Hear from one of the leading experts on OIG CMP actions, Arthur Di Dio, Senior Counsel for the Administrative and Civil Remedies Branch of the Office of Counsel to the Inspector General for the Department of Health and Human Services. Howard Young, a former Deputy Branch Chief with the Office of Inspector General, will assist you with the comprehension of CMP cases. In this 90-minute session you will learn:
Arthur S. Di Dio works on matters involving civil and administrative health care fraud enforcement. He litigates cases on behalf of the Office of Inspector General under the Civil Monetary Penalties Law based on violations of the Anti-Kickback Statute, Stark Law, and EMTALA, and based on the submission of false or medically unnecessary claims. He also works with United States Attorney’s Offices and the Department of Justice on the investigation, development, and settlement of health care fraud cases and qui tam suits brought under the False Claims Act. In addition, he handles matters submitted by health care providers under the OIG’s Self Disclosure Protocol. Howard Young is a partner in the Washington, D.C. office of Sonnenschein, Nath & Rosenthal, a 700 lawyer national law firm. Prior to that, Mr. Young was a Deputy Branch Chief with the Office of Inspector General in Washington where he worked on health care fraud and compliance matters, including Anti-Kickback investigations, False Claims Act matters, and corporate integrity agreements. Howard supervised a staff of attorneys while at OIG. Mr. Young advises a broad range of health care businesses, including the hospital, medical supply and device, pharmaceutical, dialysis, and physician sectors. He works extensively on fraud and abuse, regulatory, reimbursement and compliance program matters. He also counsels and defends providers involved in False Claims Act, Anti-Kickback Law, and similar litigation matters. Mr. Beattie will moderate the CMP session and brings years of insight in health care operations and compliance to the program.
