Radiation care clinic settles federal kickback case in Atlanta
An Atlanta based radiation therapy company agreed to pay 2 million dollars to settle a lawsuit accusing doctor investors of self referral. The firm admitted no wrongdoing but agreed to not violate anti kickback rules as federal investigators note reliance on self referrals. The settlement requires court approval and reflects about 10 percent of Medicare and Medicaid payments to the company for treatment of elderly or poor patients. A new law tightening referral restrictions takes effect January 1.
