False Claims Act Insights

About False Claims Act Insights

Husch Blackwell’s False Claims Act Insights podcast helps healthcare providers and government contractors manage FCA risk, strengthen compliance, and defend against fraud allegations—even when the real issue is a contract or billing dispute, not intentional wrongdoing. Each episode, Jonathan Porter, a former Assistant U.S. Attorney and currently a partner with Husch Blackwell’s White Collar, Internal Investigations & Compliance team, chats with preeminent guests to provide listeners with an up-to-date understanding of the FCA, including trends in recent litigation and compliance efforts. The show also explores those elements of the FCA that make it a uniquely powerful tool for the government against private business, including the Act’s utilization of whistleblowers and its qui tam provisions, as well as evolving theories of FCA liability that expand the boundaries of what the Act covers, including cybersecurity and so-called reverse FCA claims.
