The Justice Department announced in January 2018 that it had settled False Claims Act allegations against dental management company and more than 130 of its affiliated dental clinics. Under the agreement the healthcare company and their affiliates will pay the United States and participating states a total of $23.9 million, plus interest, to resolve allegations they knowingly submitted false claims for payment to state Medicaid programs for medically unnecessary dental services performed on children insured by Medicaid. The government also alleged that dental clinics associated with the healthcare company routinely pressured and incentivized dentists to meet production goals through a system that disciplined "unproductive" dentists and awarded "productive" dentists with substantial cash bonuses based on the revenue generated by the procedures they performed.

Simple rules for a whistleblower from the Corporate Whistleblower Center: Do not go to the government first if you are a major whistleblower. The Corporate Whistleblower Center says, "Major whistleblowers frequently go to the government thinking they will help. It's a huge mistake. Do not go to the news media with your whistleblower information. Public revelation of a whistleblower's information could destroy any prospect for a reward. Do not try to force a company or individual to come clean stark on anti-kickback laws or overbilling Medicare. Come to us first, tell us what type of information you have, and if we think it's sufficient, we will help find the right law firms to assist in advancing your information.
