Reach US False Claims Act readiness without rebuilding your policy programme
The False Claims Act (FCA) imposes liability on persons + companies who defraud federal programs — including Medicare + Medicaid. Treble damages + civil penalties per claim ($13,946-$27,894 in 2024). Qui tam provisions allow whistleblowers (relators) to bring suits on behalf of the government + share in recovery (15-30%). Healthcare is the largest source of FCA recoveries — covering billing fraud, kickbacks-as-FCA-predicate (post-2010 ACA), worthless services, off-label promotion + DSH gaming. Driving force behind hospital + physician + pharma compliance programs. Quick Policy maps US False Claims Act into the policy families, controls, and evidence your team needs - and keeps it current between audits.
Standards assurance
How Quick Policy verifies against US False Claims Act
Every policy Quick Policy generates is scored against US False Claims Act's pass mark, with a PASS, WARN, or FAIL verdict and plain-English guidance on what to fix when it falls short.
A monthly automated audit re-checks coverage against this standard, so drift is caught between scheduled reviews rather than at the next one.
Audit-ready exports bundle the scored policies, gap guidance, and review history into one evidence pack when it is time to show your work.
