Gray Reed Secures Significant Victory for Regional Hospital in False Claims Act Litigation
Gray Reed is proud to announce a significant legal victory for a well-respected regional hospital in a complex healthcare whistleblower action in which the hospital faced allegations of improper billing under the False Claims Act and Texas False Claims Act. Gray Reed healthcare litigators London England and Ken Stone represented the hospital with the assistance of Pat Souter of Gray Reed’s Healthcare Practice Group.
In a rare and noteworthy outcome, the Relator, United States Attorney's Office, and State of Texas agreed to dismiss all claims and theories related to the hospital. This wholesale dismissal included any allegations of wrongdoing that could have impacted other defendants in the case.
"This result is a testament to our client's integrity and our team's relentless pursuit of justice," England said. "We are very proud of this outcome and happy for our client, who can now continue to focus on providing exceptional healthcare services to the community."
Gray Reed's healthcare litigation team has a proven track record of successfully defending healthcare providers in complex legal matters and the robust Healthcare Practice Group provides counseling and compliance support to hospitals and physician groups.
