We are proud to share a significant result achieved by the Bass, Berry & Sims team, Denise Barnes, Kristin Bohl, Garrah Carter and Emily Fountain, on behalf of a client physician.
Our team successfully secured the lifting of a Medicare payment suspension related to fraud allegations involving skin substitute and wound care treatments—an outcome that is both rare and hard-fought. Payment suspensions can be highly disruptive, particularly at the outset of an investigation or pre-investigation, and require a strategic, fact-driven response to resolve.
This result reflects the strength of our healthcare enforcement defense expertise and underscores our continued commitment to guiding clients through high-stakes government investigations.
Stay tuned for the upcoming launch of our new life sciences subspecialty focused on wound treatment and skin substitute therapy.
