Program Summary

The False Claims Act, also known as the “Lincoln Law”, continues to serve as the United States Government’s primary tool to redress false claims for federal funds and property. Recently, a bi-partisan group of Senators introduced The False Claims Act Amendments of 2021 (S.2428), which build upon the significant changes in 1986 and 2009. The goals of the webinar are to highlight key areas of the False Claims Act, explain DOJ priorities, and highlight recent case law.

A portion of the discussion will be devoted to compliance, especially in the healthcare and government procurement industries, which can have mitigating effects during settlement discussions.

Key topics to be discussed:

  • False Claims Act and The Proposed False Claims Act Amendments of 2021
  • DOJ Enforcement Priorities & Recent Cases
  • Compliance Programs as a Mitigating Factor
