Fraud and Abuse Issues in Life Sciences Transactions

In the fourth episode of our Health Care & Life Sciences M&A Webinar Series, Winston & Strawn Partners Reed Stephens and Amandeep Sidhu discussed fraud and abuse issues that keep leaders in the life sciences industry up at night. Topics included federal and state Anti-kickback laws, the False Claims Act, and the importance of having a robust risk-based compliance program. This scenario-based presentation explored legislative scrutiny and developments in drug and device pricing, utilization of health outcomes and value-based contracting, importation of drugs, patient assistance programs, reimbursement support services, and service and supply agreements, among other fraud and abuse topics facing the life sciences sector.
