馃嚭馃嚫 Health insurer Humana agreed to pay $90 million to settle a whistleblower lawsuit accusing it of fraudulent Medicare Part D bids between 2011-2017. The lawsuit under the False Claims Act claimed that Humana overcharged the government by submitting misleading bids for Medicare Part D prescription drug contracts. This case is the first of its kind to address alleged fraud in the Part D contracting process, where Humana allegedly knowingly planned to deliver less coverage than promised, causing the government and beneficiaries to bear a larger cost burden.
