Jason Bring and Bill Dombi Quoted in McKnight’s Home Care on Anti-Fraud Risks for Home Health and Hospice Providers
AGG Healthcare attorneys Jason Bring and Bill Dombi were quoted in a McKnight’s Home Care article discussing the heightened anti-fraud environment facing home health and hospice providers, where even well-meaning agencies can face audits, payment suspensions, and revocations over technical errors.
Jason and Bill explained that enforcement activity has reached a level they have not seen before, with a sharp rise in hospice audits across the country. They noted that the government appears to understand that some legitimate providers will be swept up in its efforts and have accepted that as part of the process.
“I’ve spent close to 50 years in this realm and I have never seen the volume of hospice audits that I’m seeing today,” Bill said. Jason also addressed the potential impact of increased enforcement activity on providers that have not engaged in intentional fraud.
