Join Tony as he chats with Jeb White, the President & C.E.O. at Taxpayers Against Fraud Education. Tony and Jeb start out by touching on the impact of the recent economic injection on fraud and how this increases the need for false claims act lawyers, noting that increased government spending creates a pocket of opportunity for qui tam attorneys and whistleblowers. Jeb explains that negative public opinions of whistleblowers are an unfortunate reality, and the best way to fight back at this backlash is with the truth. Tony and Jeb discuss the history of the False Claims Act and the prominence of this type of case in the healthcare industry, adding that wherever money is flowing, there will be FCA cases.
