Neil V. Getnick Expert Analysis On The Importance of FCA Whistleblowers

All News January 6, 2021

In its Expert Analysis column, Law360 published Neil V. Getnick’s article, “FCA Whistleblowers Are More Important Than Ever Before.” Rebutting a recent column in Law360 about the new U.S. Department of Health and Human Services False Claims Act working Group, Mr. Getnick set the record straight demonstrating the critical role that whistleblowers are playing to ensure the proper use of trillions of dollars in emergency COVID-19 disaster relief funds.

“The 35-year track record of the anti-fraud Federal False Claims Act and its qui tam whistleblower provisions is a story of great success. Key to that result was the establishment over time of a new paradigm in the form of a public/private partnership. Today, lawyers who represent whistleblowers carry on that tradition by offering needed resources to government officials, in the fight against fraud, waste and abuse of COVID-19 disaster relief funds.”
