Colorado Technical University Laws In Health Care Questions

 

I’m working on a health & medical question and need support to help me understand better.

Federal agencies are increasingly becoming active in investigating violations of health care laws. In addition, private lawsuits are surfacing on violations of health care laws. Find a recent case where there has been a violation of a health care law, such as a case involving fraud, privacy, or security. Discuss the following:

  • What tort or criminal law was violated?
  • Who was the investigating agency?
  • Were there civil or criminal penalties and what were the penalties?
  • In your opinion, was this a fair penalty for the violation that occurred?
