How to Report Fraud for State False Claims Act (FCA) Cases
If you're a whistleblower with knowledge of fraudulent activities against a state government program or involving state funds, you may choose to file a case under a state False Claims Act (FCA). The majority of states have passed acts similar to the federal FCA, which allow whistleblowers to sue on behalf of the government for a chance to receive 15% to 30% of the government’s recovery.
If a whistleblower decides to pursue a state FCA case, they must serve the state a copy of the complaint and a disclosure statement. Therefore, it is important to have the most up-to-date contact information for each state’s Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU) or other relevant state entity.
At Goldberg Kohn, we can help you file a complaint in a state FCA case and serve a complaint and disclosure statement to the correct state entity.
