💸ICYMI: we’re revisiting the August 26 DOJ blockbuster settlement under which Villages Health System agreed to pay $541.5 million, forcing it into Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The massive payout settled allegations that the Florida-based healthcare provider group violated the False Claims Act by causing the submission of false diagnosis codes to increase their payments under the Medicare Advantage program.
