False Claims Act

The Federal False Claims Act prohibits the
knowing submission of fraudulent claims to
federal programs, including Medicare.
The State of Florida has enacted a similar law.

Baptist Health has established the Corporate
Compliance Program to help prevent and
detect violations of these laws.
Employees, vendors, and contractors are
encouraged to report suspected improper
conduct.
